  • How well does Vista Ultimate run? Worth getting?

    Hey everyone, I have XP installed right now on my macbook pro to play Lord of the Rings Online and Counter-Strike Source. My college is offering Vista SP1 Ultimate for VERY cheap! Is it worth upgrading to Vista on a macbook pro? Also is it worth getting the 64 over the 32? I'm mostly just looking at being able to run Lord Of The Rings Online and Counter Strike and maybe some other games. So would it be wise to get Vista SP1 64-bit?
    Also how well would it run in VMWare? I use VMWare sometimes when I just need to change some stuff in my XP Boot Camp partition, does it still run well?

    which macbook pro do you have? What are the specs?

  • T61 with Vista Ultimate WON'T replicate CD/DVD like R61 with XP Professional - - - HOW DO I DO THIS?

    Tried to copy a CD on new T61 with Vista Ultimate preloaded.  Did this with no problems on an R61 with XP Professional.  The HELP files say to copy all data to a directory and then copy them to a blank CD.  This is NOT what I want or need.  It also mentions that OTHER software to do this may be obtainable.  I KNOW that Lenove uses ROXIO in its CMD line interface as a brand new system gave me the BSOD when inserting a video DVD and Windows Media Player coughed and died.  Took about 3 hours to return to factory settings on a machine I had just customized.  Is this another "feature" from Microsoft or what?  Can you load ROXIO or other  software to DUPLICATE CDs and DVDs.  Have the dual layed DVD/CD RW slim ultrabay drive.  Who makes this drive anyway?

    HL = Hitachi LG and Panasonic are the two that i know of.

  • How To Get Ipod Touch 2nd Gen to work with 64 bit Vista / Vista Ultimate

    Okay, so I just got me a 2nd Gen Ipod Touch for X-Mas..I decided to take a break and get this puppy installed on my HP Tablet. Like many of you, I struggled in frustrations. I hate Apple Support. Notice their method to resolve all of their issues in regards to Itunes not working or Touch not working is to just REINSTALL ITUNES....doesnt solve anything. I have a solution.
    For many of you, this may work, for those that are experiencing the same problem, please read below.
    What I am using:
    HP Tablet TX1000
    Platform: Windows Vista - Ultimate 64 Bit.
    I downloaded the 64 bit version of Itunes 8.02...hoping the thing will work, and still after plugging in my brand new ipod... i get an error message saying.
    "The IPOD you are using is not recognized by this version of Itunes, please delete and reinstall with 64 bit version of Itunes."
    However I did install the 64 bit version of ITUNES on my Vista. Before you guys delete and reinstall again. Do this first to confirm that my solution will help.
    Open up Itunes, go to help, click on Run Diagnostics. Select only, Ipod/Iphone Connectivity tests and hit next.
    If your Apple Mobile Device Service is RED, it means its not installed or not activated. Please read apple forums for the reactivation of AMDS. *If you are like me and did that help, and realized its not installed,* something on vista is preventing the install.
    Do the following.
    1) Delete ITUNES Completely. When asked for a restart, click No.
    2) Go to the C:\Program Files\Common Files and look for the Apple Folder and delete that puppy too.
    3) Redownload the 64 bit Installed and save to your desktop. You will need this later. DONT INSTALL NOW.
    4) Go to the Start/Circle Menu and on the bottom, type RUN in the Search and select the Run Program.
    4) Type msconfig and hit enter.
    5) When the Program pops up, in the General, DE-select normal startup and select. SELECTIVE START UP. and deselect/leave blank START UP ITEMS
    6) Move over to the Start Up Tab, DESELECT ANY VIRUS SCAN PROGRAM You Have Running.
    7) Click Apply then OKAY, and Exit that window.
    8) Now RESTART your computer.
    9) Reinstall ITUNES as done before.
    10) Go to HELP...run the diagnostics as before and your Apple Mobile Device should be green Now.
    11) Close that window. Connect your IPOD.
    12) iTUNES should now recognize your IPOD.
    After it works. Go back to MSCONFIG...and on General, put Normal Start Up. Click Okay. Restart.
    Hope that works.
    If IPOD is still not recognized, then its a driver issue and I dont know.
    The problem I was having was due to Apple Mobile Device Services not being installed.
    Sincerely,
    Dr. SkiLLz. M.D.

    This is an Answer for a Possible Solution. It worked for me and is still working. The issue I was having with my 64 bit vista, was Apple Mobile Device Service was not being installed, I dont know why. But I disabled any active running program through MSCONFIG, to allow a clean uninterrupted install of ITUNES 8.02. This allowed AMDS and drives from ITUNES to install. Hope this works for most of you.
    APPLE, please review your Support Methods. Re-installing doesnt help an issue that resulted from installing.

  • How to Install oracle 8i on Windows Vista Ultimate

    Hii,
    I want to install oracle 8i in my laptop. I am using Vista Ultimate OS.
    I am getting a java runtime error.
    why is it happening ?

    Install Personal Edition or Express Edition.
    You can still install EE or SE, however, you need toLOL.
    Given that Personal Edition IS A SUPERSET OF Enterprise Edition, what is that going to buy the OP?
    Reference: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/license.102/b14199/editions.htm#CJADFHGH from which we read "
    Oracle Database Personal Edition Oracle Database Personal Edition supports single-user development and deployment environments that require full compatibility with Oracle Database Standard Edition One, Oracle Database Standard Edition, and Oracle Database Enterprise Edition.
    Personal Edition includes all of the components that are included with Enterprise Edition, as well as all of the options that are available with Enterprise Edition, with the exception of the Oracle Real Application Clusters option, which cannot be used with Personal Edition. Personal Edition is available on Windows 2000, Windows NT, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003 (32-bit and 64-bit versions). The Management Packs are not included in Personal Edition."
    <sheesh>
    This myth has been around for years. And this one doesn't even need an install to verify or debunk - just simple reading. You'd think it would be gone by now.

  • Upgraded from Vista ultimate to Win. 7. Don't know how to install the tv tuner

    I upgraded from Vista ultimate to Win. 7. When I tried to install the TV tuner, nothing seemed to happen.

    Save the TV Tuner driver to the desk top and use 7zip to extract the files. There may be a folder there named SRC. Open that and look for the Windows install icon.
     If you give me your full model number and the version of W7 (32 or 64 bit) you are running I can help you further with this manual installation procedure.

  • Vista Ultimate - NOT 64bit? How to make it 64bit

    I just ordered a new T500 and it hasn't been shipped yet.  When I placed my order, I saw the Vista Business 64 option, but I also saw the Vista Ultimate with Downgrade to XP option, so I chose the latter, thinking that Ultimate would also be a 64-bit operating system.  After all, selecting the option cost more than the Business 64 version.
    In checking the Hardware Maintenance manual, however, it lists the OSs offered on the T500 as including Vista Ultimate in 32bit mode only.
    Yikes!  I need a 64bit OS!  Is there anything I can do?  My understanding is that Vista Ultimate, as shipped by Microsoft in a boxed configuration, combes in both 32 and 64 bit editions.  Will Lenovo ship me both versions?  Is there an easy upgrade path?  Or am I better off trying to get my order changed back to a Business 64 version?  Is that even possible?
    Thank you.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    who did you contact? I have the exact same problem and have been told I have to return it and order a new one. 15% restocking fee and wait anther week or two. I pulled out the drive that came with it and installed a new 320 GB 7200 WD hard drive.

    Hello,
    I have Windows Vista Ultimate and whe I plug my 30GB 5G Ipod it asks for the driver. It does not appear nor on explorer nor itunes.
    I have itunes 7.1.5 installed.
    i did try reseting the ipod but still the same problem.
    I did try my Ipod on an XP computer and it works.
    have anyone solved this compatibility problem or knows how to solve it?

    This should get your itunes store connection working.
    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

  • Brand new IMac can't connect to Internet while using Vista Ultimate

    The subject is pretty much it, but basically.  We just bought a brand new IMac and I happened to have an old copy of Windows Vista Ultimate lying around and wanted to partition some hard drive space for gaming.  During the installation a message popped up that said Lion only supports Windows 7.  I went through with the installation and after Windows started I loaded in my old Snow Leopard CD.  I installed the drivers and went through the set up.  Everything seemed fine, but I am unable to connect to the Internet.  I plugged my desktop in via Ethernet to my router but still no Internet.  In my device manager there are many devices, including network controller, that have yellow exclamations next to them but I don't know how to update them or where to get the drivers.  Any help would be greatly appreciated, and I would be happy to take any steps to relay more information.  Thank you!

    New motherboard. So unless you can find, and want to mess around, which is why the pdf guide and all the faqs tell you what and how to install, and that only 7 is supported.
    Vista SP1 is no longer supported even by MS.
    You have Sandy Bridge based system with Thunderbolt, hence it needed new device drivers.
    Windows 7 64-bit SP1 Home Premium System Builder is $95

  • Installation Flash cs3 with Windows Vista Ultimate

    I am trying to use Flash on Windows Vista Ultimate.
    Installing the program tells me a mistake "error in the
    installation component". I have tried to install in administrator
    mode and windows account manager
    Can anyone tell me how to install Flash for suite cs3?

    I would download a new installer, you can get the trial
    installer, then just enter your serial when you first run it.
    Sounds like a corrupt exe. But yes, make sure and run as
    Administrator by right clicking the file.

  • Windows Vista Ultimate and Oh Crap!

    Hello All,
    This post is a bit of a question and a bit of advice. I am a System's Analyst / Network Engineer. I have a lot of experience with computers, Windows, and Mac OS. Eight days ago I started working with a client on a brand new PC with ALL the bells and whistles. The PC is an HP Pavilion running Windows Vista Ultimate, RAID 1 (Mirror), Removable Media Drive, Great Sound via X-Fi, Great Video via Nvidia PCI-X, and SATA (Obviously since it's running a RAID array).
    I got everything setup and running great and as the last step installed iTunes and Quicktime. My client has a few thousand songs, a ton of TV shows, and a whole mess of movies ALL purchased thru iTunes store. Nothing is pirated, stolen, or illegal on this computer. Now, here's where it gets good.
    I did the import in a few stages to make the data transfer a little faster. I did music, then TV, then movies. I tested a song and it worked great. I went to play a TV show and the computer slowed to a halt. I let it go like this until activity started on the machine again. It took about 5 minutes and then iTunes crashed. A second later the computer blue-screened and rebooted.
    As soon as the reboot occured the RAID array came up in a failed state. I had to rebuild the array and get back into Windows. I tried again with the TV show, had the same result, tried again with a movie, and again had the same result. I called HP and they told me to fresh install the OS so I did. Again, same result.
    This has been going on now for a few days with several different tests and several array rebuilds and OS installs. I would have had HP replace the computer or the motherboard but NOTHING else on the entire PC was causing this problem and diagnostics showed no hardware issues. There is/was no reason to suspect faulty hardware or software other than iTunes and/or Quicktime.
    Today I ran the final tests and a fresh rebuild. I found some documentation stating that iTunes had some compatibility issues with Vista and decided to try some other videos that I could run in Media Center. They worked flawlessly. I'm left thinking that these problems are specifically iTunes / Quicktime and will move forward accordingly. Apple has stated that they are working with Microsoft to develop a new version of iTunes that is fully compatible with Vista and I have chosen to wait until that version comes out before installing it again.
    My question is if any of you have experienced issues like this? If you have, do you have any advice or things you did to make it work? Please comment here as I will be watching this post to see your responses.
    My advice is to be very cautious when installing iTunes in Vista, especially with this sort of configuration. I've seen iTunes work fine in Vista before but this is the first time I've worked with a configuration like this. Please be aware of the potential problems. As I've stated earlier, everything else is working perfectly.
    Thanks for your time and sorry for the long post. Have a great day!
    HP PavilionCTO D4790Y   Other OS   Windows Vista Ultimate, 4 gigs of RAM, 256 Meg GeForce 7500LE PCI-X, RAID 1 SATA with 250 gigs

    Thank you for the great responses, guys! This is exactly the kind of feedback I was hoping to get.
    Rain-Man, your post is EXACTLY what I was hoping for. This computer is also running WD drives. I had a feeling that WD might have been some of the issue but it only happened on the SATA RAID config. The computer I set up right behind this PC (on another desk) is EXACTLY the same but does not have a RAID 1 setup and runs perfectly with iTunes.
    Also, there is a Hauppauge TV tuner running in this PC and, in retrospect, I think may be conflicting with codecs. God forbid you would have multiple codecs installed on one PC....
    I'm not going to sit here and bash WD or Hauppauge, but I'm not a big fan of either of these devices. One of the other things that bothers me is that the RAID is controlled by "Intel Matrix" which is the default software RAID controller in this HP product. There isn't any real control in the management console. All you can do is rebuild a failed array or view an existing configuration. That doesn't really say, "AWESOME" to me. Being an HP product I'm assuming this is pretty standard because it was the default software controller installed on this system.
    Any way you look at it, I really appreciate the posts here. I agree that there is an issue that Apple needs to address. WD or not, the fact that people are having problems getting iTunes to work in Vista needs to be resolved. We pay for our music and our shows and our movies and deserve to have them working and not getting deleted, corrupted, or damaged when we try to play them or transfer them. I love the fact that Apple is incorporating new technology into their products but we pay for that technology and it should work.
    If I hadn't backed up my client's iTunes folder I would have lost everything he paid for. He's a pretty cool guy but how would you feel if you lost a couple grand worth of music, TV, and movies? I would be pretty upset.
    In the end, I think RAID or drive configuration on this PC is one of the major issues. It's something to do with the SATA controller and Vista combined with iTunes / Quicktime. I'm not exactly sure how that could be but I believe it's something Apple / Microsoft needs to investigate...
    Please keep the posts coming as I will be checking here regularily for updates. Thanks for your input and I hope we're able to resolve this issue soon.

  • Window Vista Ultimate Updates - Error 80071A91 and 490

    I can't update Windows Vista because of these errors, and I can't find any info on how to fix them other than buying registry software.  Will this help?  Any ideas?  I have a T61p w/ Windows Vista Ultimate.
    Thank you!

    Quicktime doesn't open either and sends same error message

  • Windows Vista Ultimate Password

    I have a HP Pavillion Vista Ultimate, Windows.
    I finally got past the admistrative code,,....and now I am tring to sign in to Windows and the programs I have on my laptop,...unforunately I, apparently keep putting the wrong password in. Once I finally get in, I will either reset the passwords, or delete them all together, to not have future problems like this again. Of course I should have written them down, but didn't,...just trying to start again. Any and all help from one of you gurus/geniuses would be greatly appreciated,...and oh yeah, I 'will' be writing these down,..if I reset,....thanks so very much for sharing your knowledge.....Maxie.
