Install error on Win XP Pro

I have an AMD 64 bit processor and running on XP Service Pack 2. The OS I believe is for 32-bit.
After I downloaded the 102010_win64_x64_database file, I ran the cksum in Linux to make sure the download was good. Then I unzipped it in Windows and tried executing the setup.exe.
Here's the error... "setup.exe is not a valid Win32 application"
What gives? I thought there wasn't any difference between the XP 32-bit and the XP 64-bit OS. Is there a way to work around or do I neeed to download the 23-bit version of Oracle 10g...
Thanks.

Hey Guys,
I am Srinivas Here who had been trying to install Oracle Database 10G on Windows X86 on Windows XP Professional.
If you have Win-XP Professional as your Operating System. Do not download the oracle Database using windows - XP Professional because XP will block certain installation files while downloading. In your machine install Windows 2000 or any other Windows version as a dual boot. First the download Database Zip files using your other version of Windows Operating system and then when you Unzip the files it will create a folder called Database and all the files will be present in it.If you want to store the same to cd for having to install the 10G Rel 2 database through CD then copy the contents of the unzipped database folder and store only the contents of the database folder and write them to CD's. Please see to it that while writing on cd's do not copy the folder itself .
After this, restart the system and get into windows XP Professional (Your XP Professional should be with Service Pack 2 in order to install 10G Database on windows XP - The Basic requirements for Oracle Database 10G on Windows X86).
I request you to check the software and hardware requirements from oracle Documents before you install the Oracle Database 10G on Windows x86 as well as Oracle Database 10G on Linux X86 or any other operating systems.
Finally, After you run the Oracle Universal installer in the last you will get messages for all products installed Success and finally it will ask the password for DBA and open the password management and give the password and reenter password and on the left you will have to unlock the items you would like to use.
In the last it will give you various URL links for Isqlplus, DBA, Enterprise Manager and a log report stored into oracle directory stored in your C:\Program files\Oracle folders. The correct link will be given at the end and you will have to watch the installation carefully.You can find DBCA and other options working. Try login in to Oracle through Command prompt, Sqlplus prompt availabe in Start ->Programs->Orahome10G->application Development-sqlplus as well as login through isqlplus link- Before this you should login at the command prompt as SYSDBA. YOU CAN SEE THAT YOUR DATABASE IS NOW WORKING IN WINDOWS XP PROFESSIONAL.
THANKS IN ADVANCE TO ALL FORUM MEMBERS WHO GAVE ME IDEA AND SUPPORT
REGARDS,
SRINIVAS

This error message appears every time I start (boot) my computer and windows starts (Firefox is not running at start up). Firefox 15.01 functions properly otherwise.
This started after I installed the 15.0.1 patch.
I uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox but the problem remains. Google search for "ofpviaowu.dat" came up with "2012-08-29 Firefox Release 15 Startup Crash Report" as the only listing.
Is this a Firefox issue?

hello QAMgr, i'm not aware of this file being a part of firefox & also find it slightly suspicious that there are no more google search hits. maybe this is malware related... could you do a full scan of your system with the security software already in place and/or a different tool like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes]?

Installing Full Retail Win 8 Pro on a Lenovo System supplied with Win 8 Standard/Core

Hello,
So I have a Thinkpad Twist that came with Windows 8, and I am trying to reinstall Windows 8 Pro on. I have a copy of Win 8 Pro OEM and I don't want to purchase the upgrade since I already have the full version. I would like to put this machine on a domain in my test lab, and only able to do that running Win 8 Pro.
So, I booted off a USB DVD and installed the OS, however once it was installed, I noticed it was still the standard Win 8. So I tried it again, with the same result. When I do the reinstall I am partitioning and formatting both drive on the Twist, so I'm not sure why it's reverting back to standard Win 8. Also when I install Win 8 Pro it never asks me for a key, so something is odd, and it's pulling that old standard Win 8 info from somewhere.
I went into the BIOS and noticed there are some security settings to avoid letting you install a new OS. So I disabled all of those, and tried the install again with the same result. I don't get it.
Does anyone know how to totally clean the disk(s) so that I can just do a clean install of Win 8 Pro? Or what settings I need to change in the BIOS to allow it to let me do a fresh install? I have been working on this for over 8 hours now.. starting to pull my hair out.
Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Solved!

Thanks for the input guys. I ended up finding the solution here..

I had to do an unattended install which supersedes the product key embedded in the BIOS flash memory.

Installing Full Retail Win 8 Pro on a Lenovo System supplied with Win 8 Standard/Core

If you are attempting to install a full retail (or similar) copy of Win 8 Pro on Lenovo system that came with standard Win 8 (also referred to as Win 8 Core) installed from the factory, you will run into an issue at install time.
By MS design default , full Win 8 Pro retail (etc) versions look for a key embedded in the BIOS (often referred to as an OA3 or OA3.0 key). If that key does not match the version of Win 8 you are trying to install, the install will fail without offering the option of entering the retail key that was supplied with your full retail (etc) Win 8 Pro.
Microsoft has issued a "FAST PUBLISH" support article on how to work around this design approach. See
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2796988
Note that this workaround requires the creating and placing of a PID.txt file by methods which are not entirely described in the support article, so be prepared to do some more digging for all the relevant information.

I don't work for Lenovo

Hi,
I have a Lenovo H520g essential desktop, which came with Windows 8 SL pre-installed. I bought my Lenovo on August 8 2013 and as of the November 2013 the machine was updated to Windows 8.1 Single Language.
Today, April 14th 2014, I bought Windows 8.1 Pro on a full retail DVD from a local physical Microsoft reseller. I have successfully installed Windows 8.1 Pro on my H520g. The installation run smooothly, no problems at all.
The steps I took were as follows:
1) Checked the UEFI BIOS to see if the DVD drive were included on the boot list and set it as the first boot device.
2) Booted the computer with the Windows 8.1 pro DVD on the optical drive.
3) Entered the Windows 8.1 License Key that came on the retail DVD.
4) Erased all partitions from the HDD were Windows 8.1 SL were installed.
5) Proceeded normally with the installation
Yesterday I made a phone call to the Microsoft support and they assured me that on all computers that come with Windows 8 SL pre-installed, it is possible to install Windows 8.1 Pro. The conditions are: 1) you must install the full retail version of Windows 8.1 Pro, not the OEM version; 2) you must do a clean install of Windows 8.1 Pro, not the install that preserves files and applications.

If your library is in the standard layout of an iTunes folder containing an iTunes Media folder (and you've already copied over the media) then you can simply copy the iTunes library files and album artwork folder across to the new machine recreating the same layout. If the media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder then see make a split library portable for a way to get the library into a portable form, after which you can copy over the library files.

Acrobat 9 Pro install on pc Win XP Pro with Acrobat 6 Pro

My Win XP Pro Dell PC has Acrobat 6 Pro. Question: What is the safest thing to do to install Acrobat 9 Pro? Should I remove Acrobat 6 Pro first using the Remove Program option? Thanks. drC

Do you have the serial number for your Acrobat 6 Pro and is your Acrobat 9 Pro an upgrade??
In case yo do not have the serial number , and your Acrobat 9 Pro is an upgrade you should not uninstall acrobat 6 otherwise you will be struck at the Upgrade serial number screen and then you will ave to call Customer Support.
If you have the serial number for Acrobat 6 , then you can uninstall it , if , in case , you get the prompt for upgrade serial number , you will have to selct the product from the drop down as Acrobat 6 Pro and enter its serial number there.

[TV@Plus] Can't install drivers in win XP pro sp2

I can't install the drivers of that tv@nywhere plus. I tried it on different computers = same results. Tried the msi driver on web site = same results. I have the following message " The tv@nywhere WDM Driver Installation Failed ". Is it the card or what ? Sent an email to MSI = no answer. Do I have to return it and buy a better card (not from MSI)....Tried in 4 different computers....HELP ME SOMEONE !!!

I tried it on a P4 3.2 ghz, ATI Radeon 9600 128 megs, Gigabyte Motherboard (don't remember wich one), over 256 megs DDR, 160 gigs hdd. The second one was a Athlon XP 2200+, Ati Radeon 9250 128 megs, Gigabyte Motherboard GA-7VKMP, 80 gigs hdd, 512 megs DDR. The third one is a P3 866, Ati rage Pro, Intel motherboard, 384 megs SDram, 40 gigs hdd. They're all new installed win xp pro SP2 computers (after updates everywhere ex:graphic cards, windows etc...) Really confused !!! Tried in different PCI slots. Do you think it's a card or chips (physically) problem, at your advice ? I'm not at my first computer installation, and it's the first time I see this problem. I'm in computers since 6 years and never seen that before. Help me please...........

Pro XI Install error on Win 7 64-bit "The application was unable to start correctly"

I am trying to install Acrobat Pro XI an a computer running Windows 7 64-bit
Before I can install I get the following error:
I exited the install and ran vc_red from the Adobe CD.
Started install of Acrobat XI and got the same error.
I exited the install and installed vcredist_x64 (Visual C++ 2010 SP1 downloaded from the Microsoft Download Center)
Started install of Adobe Pro XI and the same error came up.
Decided to proceed with the install.
Got the following error once install had completed:
Closed the error by clicking "OK" and clicked finish on the install window.
Tried to run Acrobat and got the same error as above except it said acrobat.exe-application error instead of acrodist.exe-application error.
Restarted PC-Same Error
Used Adobe cleaning utility
Rebooted PC
Reinstalled Acrobat Pro XI
Same Error

I haven't heard of any fix from Adobe but maybe this will hwlp.
I kept getting an error this morning when trying to install Windows updates on my PC. One of the updates was trying to update Visual C++ (vc_red) from a folder on the C drive which was locked. The folder had a very long name (2f4b86.....). I kept getting a popup box pointing to the folder but it would not install the update from there. I had to copy the folder to the C:\Users\Public Downloads folder to get it to install. I mention this because vc_red seems to be involved with the previous Acrobat XI installation issue I had.
I would try looking at your installed updated and see if you have either update installed.:
Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package (KB2538242)
Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Service Pack 1 Redistributable Package (KB2538243)
Removing them may allow Acrobat XI to be installed.

875P Neo-FIS2R File Copy errors loading Win XP Pro

While installing WinXP Pro SP 1 I get file copy failures on random files two or three times during the install. Retry succeeds on the file, but errors keep coming up after install randomly. Explorer crashes on logon, files are corrupt, etc. Tried two different MBs, two different CPUs, two different PSUs, two different sets of RAM, different IDE cables, booting from both DVD Drives, different Win XP CDs. I also tried the same with a Gigabyte 875 board and had exactly the same problem. With the Gigabyte board, if I ran the bus with a setting of 190 or 195 instead of 200MHz, the system ran fine, but then my 2.8GHz CPU is running at 2.66GHz. I can't go slower than 200MHz (but I did try 201 and 202; same errors) on the Neo-FIS2R so I can't find a setting that is stable and that's the board I'd like to be running. Any ideas about what's causing all of these combinations from running stable at a stock setting of 2.8GHz?
Thanks.

I am also having trouble with this on xp pro. When fully installed I get many random errors. New at this but have read that if you install a partition more than 137 gb data corruption may occur. So I partitioned the drive 20, 70, 70, and installed xp pro on the 20 gb partition. Per mb and hdd manuals I installed xp sp1. I am still getting random errors. This is the only hdd. Maxtor 160 gb ata 133 on ide1. Is it impossible to run the system this way? It gives me random crashes and stop requests. It also at one point gave me erros saying the cdrom memory is corrupt. Is the hdd drive sze possibly the problem?

CS3 Install Error on new MacBook Pro w/Mavericks

I am attempting to install Illustrator from my CS3 Web Premium discs on a brand new 15" MacBook Pro/Retina. PhotoShop came over with Migration Assistant from my older MacBook Pro.
When I click "Setup" the instal starts but then I get a Startup Error "required resources missing".
It doesn't tell me what resources are missing so the only thing I can do is click "Quit".
Is there a fix for this?
Thanks!

OK
I tried running the Uninstall and got the same Setup Error "required resources missing" so I couldn't even run that.
I used App Cleaner to remove all of the CS3 programs and then restarted my MacBook Pro.
I then downloaded the AdobeCreativeCloudCleaningTool.dmg file. I double clicked it in my downloads folder and let it clean up CS3.
Then I restarted my computer again.
I plugged the UBS SuperDrive in and inserted the Adobe Creative Suite' 3 Web Premium Application disk and clicked on Setup.
It starts to set up (initializing set up) and then gives me the same Setup Error "required resources missing".
I even followed this link that you gave me:
http://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here. html
And tried to download the File 1 for Trial under Mac and get the following:
HTTP ERROR: 404 /support/downloads/dlm/main.jsp
RequestURI=/support/downloads/dlm/main.jsp
This is crazy. I own this software. I have it sitting in front of me. I just can't get it to install.
Is there somewhere I can get this missing required resource and put it in the correct location so my software will load?
This was not inexpensive software and I have been using it for quite some time on my older MacBook Pro. I shiould be able to continue to use it. Don't you think?
Any other help/ideas will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Can I install full retail Win 8 Pro on a Lenovo R500 with a Win 7 Pro preload?

Lenovo does not support Windows 8 on the R500. Can someone please tell me why.
When Windows 8 became available, I ran out and purchased a copy to install on my R500, foolishly thinking that Lenovo would support the upgrade on its older machines as it had previously, whenever a new release of Windows had become available in the past.
I was quite surprised to not find that my R500 was not supported.
So, will Windows 8 install, or will the installation fail? What functions would give me problems? Obviously, the touch screen functions won’t work, but can I attach an external touch screen?
Is the problem a hardware deficiency or is it a software deficiency?
So, do I have a useless Win 8 software box? I hope someone out there has an explanation.

Hi Chuck,
R500 is a pretty old model and i guess Lenovo like other manufacturers cannot support all the old models for every new Windows version. So they have to draw a line somewhere and the R500 is too old.
Windows 8 should install fine, but you might find that there are some drivers which is not available for your computer. You might find that some features do not work because of missing drivers and software for Windows 8.
I never had a R500 and usually upgrade my computer every year so i cannot say for sure what might not be working. Some of the drivers might be available from other manufacturers like Intel.
I'm sure your Windows 8 won't be useless as you will probably buy a new computer in the close future since the R500 is pretty old. At least Windows 8 is pretty cheap compared to earlier upgrades from Microsoft. The Windows 8 compatibility list from Lenovo been available for pretty long and the R500 never been listed.

ICloud Control Panel 2.0 instalation error on Win 7 x64bit

just tried by Apple Software Update and manually as recommended and got that error is it because it's 32bit version of installer ?
i have microsoft visual c++ 2008 as well as 2005 and 2010 installed for x86 and x64 so...

These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iCoud trouble cleaned up en passant.
Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing the iCloud control panel again. Does it go through this time for you?
If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? Are they also 8007370B, or some other number? (If they're another number, what number are you getting?)
EDIT: Changed references to iTunes to iCloud.
