Jinitiator issue on windows Xp x64

Hello,
I have EBS installed on a linux server. I am using IE7 to gain access to the main sysadmin pages. However, when I click on system administrator and define a user I keep getting an error FRM-92050 failed to connect to server, URL:9000.
I have tried this with IE7 on another PC and it works fine and I can defines users etc and have no problems with navigating around EBS.
My PC is windows XP x64 bit and this does not work and the PC which does work is 32bit OS. Has anyone else come across this issue and is there any way to resolve.

you can check in the IE 7:
Click Tools -> Internet Options.
Click the Programs tab, then Manage add-ons
you have to look for the service affecting the Jinitiator and disable it.

  • Mac Pro Sleep/Wakeup Issue in Windows 7 x64

    I have experienced two issues related to sleep in Windows 7 x64 on my Mac Pro 3,1 with Bootcamp 3.2 for a while. From search results it seems several people also experienced similar issues, but no solution/workaround yet.
    The first issue is that sometimes the Mac Pro won't wake up from sleep. If I made it to enter sleep, then it (almost) always wake up. But if it enters sleep itself, then there's a chance (around 25%) that it won't wake up. The fans and HDDs are running, but the screen is black, mouse/keyboard no response and I can't ping it. After forcing it to shutdown and restart it, there will be an "HAL Error" in Eventlog ("The platform firmware has corrupted memory across the previous system power transition. Please check for updated firmware for your system"
    ). Some folks experienced the same issue in this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11839029
    The second issue is that if I disable Hybrid Sleep with the Apple Bluetooth Keyboard connected, the Mac Pro will not sleep with the HDDs shutdown but fans running at full speed. If I removed the batteries from the Apple Bluetooth Keyboard, it goes to sleep and wakes up normally. Whether the Magic Mouse is connected or not doesn't make a difference.
    I can't reproduce either issues in OS X.
    Would really appreciate if someone can share some insights or workarounds. Thanks!

    Yes, almost the same problem!
    Please someone help...

  • SSLVPN connectivity issue with Windows 7 x64 All browsers.

    I think that I have tried everything to get this working but whatever I seem to do I cannot connect to my SSLVPN using Windows 7 x64. The 32bit version is fine. I have installed the Microsoft C++ Redistributable 2010 and 2005 for both x86 and x64. I have tried clearing the cache in the Browser. I have installed Chrome and Firefox , I even started my laptop using the 'Disable Driver Signature Enforcement' from Advanced Boot options but nothing is working.
    Does anyone have anything else to try. This is a bit of a showstopper for us because not do we have this issue with Windows but we have Mac users as well and that is also an issue.
    Cisco really needs to fix this issue fast...
    Please help.
    Thanks

    Try using both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Internet Explorer.  Sometimes one of the two will work.

  • ITunes 10.5 installation issue on windows 7 x64

    I can't install iTunes on my Windows 7 x64 laptop. After turning off UAC, I get the following error: "An error occured while attempting to create the directory: C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu" How can I fix this? Thanks in advance.

    I am so frustrated. I have tried everything on here and the Microsoft forums but I cannot install iTunes 10.5.0.142 or 10.5.1.42 on my Windows 7 64 bit computer.
    During the install, regardless of whether I do it manually or automatically I get the following error -
    An error occurred during the installation of assembly "Microsoft VC80.CRT.type="win32".version="8.0.507276195".publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b" .processotArchitecture="x86"". Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT:0x80070057.
    I have uninstalled all apple components, in the coorect sequence, cleared the registry and checked that windows is up to date. I have repaired the installation of .Net Framework and Visual C++ through control panel and I still get the error.
    I can reinstall itunes 10.4.1.10 anytime and it works so I find it hard to justify why this doesn't work on anyone other than Apple.
    Come on Apple, or anyone else, I am clearly not alone so please get this fixed so we can move to IOS5 too.
    Thanks

  • DRM Web Client 500.19 issue on windows 2008(x64)  ERROR

    Hi,
    I installed DRM version 11.1.2 on windows server 2008(x64), according to the documents, I pre-installed .Net 3.5.1 and modified the applicationHost.conf file.
    I found this in epm_install_troubleshooting
    Web Client Access Failure
    Issue: After installing Data Relationship Management on Windows 2008 64-bit platform, you
    get this error message when attempting to access the Web client:
    HTTP Error 500.19 - Internal Server Error The requested page cannot be
    accessed because the related configuration data for the page is invalid.
    Solution: In the IIS configuration file (C:/Windows/System32/inetsrv/config/
    applicationHost.config), replace the two occurrences of Deny in the following section with
    Allow:
    <configuration>
    <configSections>
    <sectionGroup name="system.webServer">
    <section name="handlers" overrideModeDefault="Deny" />

    However when I access the web client I got the 500.19 error, can't find C:\inetpub\wwwroot\drm-web-client\web.config, the web.config file do not exist.
    Config File \\?\C:\inetpub\wwwroot\drm-web-client\web.config

    Might be too late, but the problem is that IIS is pointing to the incorrect path. Should not be pointing to C:\Inetpub\wwwrooot\.... it should be pointing to Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\products\DataRelationshipManagement\client\web-client same thing with the migration-client IIS app. To fix use the IIS Manager click the drm-web-client virtual directory and select "Advanced Settings" and update the "Physical Path" property.

  • Windows 7 x64 Pro, desktop GUI fails to display correctly, or crashes, when High RAM load, and even after. HW changed, same issue. Please Help.

    Hi Guys,
    I have have this horror issue with my PC. I have even changed the hardware configuration and the problem still persists. My PC fails to display the desktop correctly after using highly RAM intensive applications, especially Chrome, but even after getting
    the chance to close it, or waiting for it to crash by itself, the PC is still not able to display correctly the GUI, even on other browser/applications as shown in the screenshots. 
    1st Hardware Config:
    Intel Core2Quad Q9450
    4x2GB DDR2
    MSI P43 motherboard
    Ati Radeon x550 video card
    Software used, that seemed important for me to mention:
    NOD32 v4.2
    Comodo Firewall 5.12
    Chrome
    Screenshot Captor
    SpeedFan
    Other mentions:
    Aero is disabled, because I've considered that it's one of the causes.
    So, I've considered that it's a RAM issue or a videocard issue, and I've upgraded to:
    Intel Core i7 3770k
    4x8GB DDR3
    Asus P8Z77V-LX motherboard
    Intel GPU integrated in the 3770k CPU
    The problem just happened 2 times on this rig also, and the RAM was not even coming close to  it's maximum capacity of 31.7GB. It was at ~20GB's.
    Also, this is another videocard(Intel's integrated GPU), so we can exclude the videocard from the suspects.
    My suspects:
    1) some desktop manager bugs, or other similar issue
    2)  video memory allocation - I'm still suspecting that it can be caused by the amount of RAM dedicated to the videocard, currently, I think  that it is at 256MB.
    3) some poorly designed components of Chrome/Screenshot Captor - still very questionable since there are enough resources on this system, so there should be no fight over resources. And when the system is barely used there are no issues.
    4) Adobe Shockwave Flash - maybe this one????
    I have attached a set of 20 screenshots here, these were taken on the 1st configuration of my PC, using Q9450:
    http://imgur.com/a/Mc8hI#4
    Notice how it distorts the image by duplicating it and showing it in a smaller space, or how does it displays those black rectangles. In those moments, the PC is fully functional(the apps are running the background), without being slowish or something, but
    you can hardly control it like that. For example, I've tried to remove the mouse from the USB, and then I've insterted it back, the image was not displayed correctly, but the mouse was recognised instantly and the pointer was controlable.
    Same thing still happens on the new configuration. Please advise me.
    LE: OS is Windows 7 x64 SP1 Professional and it's Geniune. There is no cracked software on this PC. No games. I've tried to maintain it as clean as possible.

    Hi,
    First, please be ensured that you have installed the latest drivers and all the updates.
    Then check whether this issue will not in
    Safe Mode. If it didn’t occurred, I suggest you narrow down the cause in
    Clean Boot mode.
    In addition, try to create a new profile to see how it works.
    Hope this helps.

  • Adobe CS4 Design Center Premium Installation issues on Windows 7 Ultimate x64 (RTM)

    I am in the process of moving my systems to Windows 7; as part of that I have attempted to install the Adobe CS 4 Design Center Premium version that I purchased on August 16th.  Thus far my experience with this has been disappointing.
    My previous system (Windows Vista x64 Ultimate) was running Adobe CS 4 Production Premium version without problems.  Upgrading this to Windows 7 worked just fine (so, Win 7 upgrade over Production Premium worked.)  However, for unrelated reasons I decided to reinstall a fresh version of Windows 7. and the Adobe CS 4 Design Center Premium version in question.
    What I observe is a highly repeatable failure during installation, in which as soon as I get to the phase where it displays "Currently installing LangPack(English) for Device Central" and then dies.  Applications are half installed at that point (I can actually use most of the tools, which is why I keep setting this aside to look at it later.)  This was a clean system and Adobe CS 4 Design Center Premium was the first thing I tried to install on the box.
    Since that failure, I have tried to install it on a completely different system (my laptop) running Windows 7 Ultimate x64 and experienced the same error.  The desktop system is a Dell, the laptop is an HP.
    The event log indicates a generic "event ID 1000" error.  The detailed information shows that something returns STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER (0xC000000D) as an exception, which is not handled and the program then dies.

    In attempting to find a work-around (since I would like to be able to actually use everything here) I have tried to run the installer in compatibility mode - both XPSP2 and Vista SP2 mode.  Both fail in the same fashion.
    At this point I've now installed a post-mortem debugger (WinDBG) and will attempt to capture more information about the specific failure.  I am hoping that someone has seen this issue previously and has found a successful work-around.  I see that others have installed the Master Suite version successfully and I suppose that is one potential solution to the problem that I may explore if i cannot get this package to work properly.

    Additional information that I have collected (the wonders of a post-mortem debugger):

    Thus, this appears to be related to WoW64 behavior in some fashion.  I am unfamiliar with NtWaitForWorkViaWorkerFactory, so I'm not sure why it would be returning STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER.
    So, I've collected a mini-dump for the process, but it's 300MB.  In the unlikely event someone is interested in analyzing it, let me know and I'll gladly provide it.
    I'm now wondering if I should re-wipe this drive, install Vista, Adobe CS 4 Design Center Premium and then upgrade to Windows 7.  But that is a lot of effort to work around an app compat issue.

  • Creative audigy 2 (SB0400) + windows 7 x64 compatability issue.

    Hell everyone, I am experiencing an issue with my sound card " the creative audigy 2 (SB0400) model " . I am running running windows 7 x64 bit with all latest security patches and updated drivers where available. However, when using the provided drivers from windows update (WDM), I experience a pause when listening to any type of music files ie: mp3,flac,ogg just to name a few and when playback on several media players, it freezes the sound + mediaplayer for a minute or two, then it will play onward. Also when not playing any media files, I have noticed a crackel pop every so often from my speakers, which can be annoying as well.
    Now, I have uninstalled the drivers provided by windows 7 update via " Start button > Computer > Manage " and selected Device Manager Then Sound , Video and Game Controllers and Right clicking on Creative SB Audigy 2 (wdm)? and choosing uninstall making sure the box is checked to also "Delete the driver software for this device" And did a reboot afterwards. After the reboot I have now downloaded the current driver pack from Creative Labs website SBAX_PCDRV_LB_2_8_00. It has installed successfully other than the fact that it has detected a previous driver (by windows updates), which I had " thought " it was deleted by windows 7. Now after i have installed the SBAX_PCDRV_LB_2_8_00 driver, when going to the speaker icon in the windows 7 tray area and selecting sounds I am annoyed by a message box saying: Windows has detected that audio enhancements for the following device are causing problems: Speakers (Createi've SB Audigy 2 (wdm) )? Would you like to disable the Driver Enhancements for this device ?.
    First of all, Why would I want to disable the " Driver Enhancements " for my SB0400 card when the card is supported for it. Are these issues be fixed, if so, please point me to the rigth direction for the proper support for my device. ?:angry:
    Also, I have been noticeing when playing any type of media file mostly all formats out there the sound will just RANDOMLY stop and freeze.

  • Freezing Issues with Video Playlists - Windows 7 x64, iTunes 10

    OK, I've been troubleshooting this problem to the best of my ability for weeks now. I can't come up with any solution, if anyone has any insight I would greatly appreciate it.
    When playing videos from a playlist when one video ends but before another begins itunes becomes unresponsive. Sometimes a new video will start right away but it's rare, mostly an outright freeze, sometimes a new video will begin after about a minute or two of unresponsiveness.
    This leads me to believe that when itunes is updating the library database files it is somehow getting stuck.
    Interestingly enough, if I skip to the end of a video just to test if it will play the next in sequence it works perfectly. It only does this behavior when a video plays all the way through.
    What I have tried already:
    -Complete re-install of my entire OS after a clean format.
    -Added all itunes files to the exception lists of my virus software (NOD32).
    -Uninstalled virus software completely (same behavior without virus scanning software at all)
    -Ran itunes as an administrator.
    -Removed all devices from the PC with the exception of critical components, plus mouse and keyboard, sound card.
    -Updated all drivers
    -Ran itunes in compatability mode (Vista, XP)
    -Completed all suggested items for "unexpected freezes" in the itunes help section.
    I am running windows 7 x64, i7 @3.06GHz, 6GB Ram.
    Running itunes 10.2.1.1
    I briefly tried to downgrade to itunes 9, this seemed to clear up the problem. This is not a solution to me, I want the shared library features for my ipad.
    All video files play fine in other media players.
    Please help, I'm completely frustrated.

    As much as I loathe thread bumpers I'm still at a loss as how to fix this issue. If anyone has any insight I would greatly appreciate it.

    I have a 2010 Macbook Pro i5 15''. I'm usually connecting to the 802.11n 5Ghz wireless network of my Time Capsule when running OS X, which works absolutely fine. When running Windows 7 x64 in Boot Camp though, this network can't be found and I have to connect to my secondary 802.11g network of an AirPort Express. Even this network connection usually dies after a few minutes of intensive use though (copying files, playing online games; it's fine with low activity like web surfing). It still appears connected normally, but no data is being transmitted. I have to reset the wireless adapter to get it to work again. The same network works fine for any OS X device.
    The Windows drivers for the Broadcom chip in this machine seem really flaky. Anybody else have these problems or maybe a solution?

    Yes, sorry, the Boot Camp area would have been a better place to ask. After some more googling I found a helpful thread though, which led me to download this driver package:
    http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?swItem= ob-80585-1&lang=en&cc=us&idx=3&mode=4&
    From it I installed the driver called "Broadcom 43225 802.11b/g/n", and presto, I can finally use my 802.11n network under Windows. Hope that's helping other people that may have this problem.

  • Windows 7 X64 & Premiere pro CS4 issues

    Hi All,
    I have a Dell Precision 690 with a clean install of Windows 7 X64 and a new (1st time) install of Production Suite CS3 (excluding Premeiere Pro CS3 and Encore CS3) and a new (1st time) install of Premiere Pro CS4 with Encore CS4.
    After starting a new HD project (1920 x 1080 29.98) if I try to open any (old or new) sequence, the program does a "serious error" hicup and has to shut down.
    Everytime I run Premiere Pro CS4 and try to load a project previously saved to the raid array that was created under XP Pro 32bit (previous life) I get this message saying that the scratch discs are write protected and would I like to change to the default (C drive) location for scratch discs. Within the original project the scartch disc was the external raid array. I can access that raid no problem from windows explorer and read and write to it.  Also all the clips within the project are read from the raid so I don't get it. Anyone come across anything like this before?

    try opening the project, clicking OK when it tells you that the scratches are write protected, and then when it opens, go to the top menu bar and click Project > project settings > Scratch discs  and re-point your scratches to the location you want them.  Save, and you should be good to go.

  • Windows 7 x64 can't read/install any printer drivers from Windows Server 2003 x64 (AMD64 folder and HP Deskjet 855c)

    I read the thread Widows 7 printer
    HP deskjet 855c driver about possible installation of HP855c drivers onto Windows 7 x64 from "Windows Server 2003 x64" CD but I didn't have enough luck to succeed with doing it on my laptop. That thread appears to be dead now
    as it is marked "Answered", so I'm asking for help here. I have Toshiba Satellite P500 with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit (http://i55.tinypic.com/2zgth6v.jpg). 
    Let me tell you first that I don't have access to Windows Server 2003 x64 or XP Pro 64 CD's. However I did some research online, which eventually forced me to learn about the "file sharing". After extensive search I was able to get the copies
    of AMD64 folders from Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard x64 with SP2 and
    XP Pro 64. The reason that I went also after XP Pro was because I thought that the extra wording "R2 Standard x64 with SP2" in description of "Windows Server 2003" did not reflect the exact name provided by poster
    Alan. I couldn't find just "Windows Server 2003 x64" (does it matter?).
    Anyway, I followed first the drill with running "printui /s /t2" and disabling UAC, and then in both cases I was able to locate the
    NTPRINT.INF file (http://oi51.tinypic.com/9qwvt2.jpg - this image is from XP Pro AMD64 folder) but each time when I
    attempted to install the driver, I got the same message stating:
    "The folder you specified doesn't contain a compatible software drive for your device. If the folder contains the driver, make sure it's designed to work with Windows for x64-based systems." (http://oi53.tinypic.com/27yveiw.jpg)
    Why aren't there x64 drivers?
    During several installation attempts I had the printer connected to or disconnected from my laptop. It didn't make any difference. I must add that for this purpose I had to use different cable than the original one designated only for the
    Parallel port in my old desktop with Windows XP. My new laptop with Windows 7 x64 came only with 3 USB ports (plus 1 HDMI and 1 Serial). Because of that situation I bought in advance a new printer cable called “USB to 36-pin Parallel Port Adapter
    Cable” (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003A8I75E). I'm not sure, if it will work until I can install the printer.
    Besides, nobody talked about this issue yet. I was also playing with the port choices in "Add printer" step; changing from default LPT1 to USB001 with the same negative results.
    I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I was very hopeful after reading positive "case closed" notes there.
    Can anyone help me here, maybe by making the necessary files available for download? I'm willing to pay for such assistance or make a donation, if necessary. Seriously. Judging by the large number of views of the original
    thread, one could assume that there is a potential demand for such service. It would be more human to pay few bucks for a few driver files than $900 for the whole Windows Server 2003 x64 CD, no? Can Microsoft accomodate me/us, please? :)
    Andrew*
    P.S. I was advised to come for help here from
    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-hardware/windows-7-x64-cant-readinstall-any-printer-drivers/4e7d06e1-33a5-4597-be70-4fdc087a63a7?msgId=9a045994-0d31-4d40-b17d-dba372393ee4

    I have my HP 855c/driver working on Win 7 Ultimate x64. I used the 'printui /s' procedure and 4 files described above with some minor changes.
    I pulled WindowsServer2003.WindowsXP-KB914961-SP2-x64-ENU.exe down from the Microsoft website. Running the file causes the exe to unpack into a temp folder at the root drive. A 'Setup Error' message box is displayed once the file is run. I left this
    message box up until I copied ntprint.inf, ntprint.cat, and sp2.cab from the temp folder.
    I copied driver.cab from a Windows XP Pro disc. I also needed amd64\stdnames.gpd which was already in my Windows 7 c:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\x64\3 folder.  
    I created a folder with the 5 files (ntprint.inf, ntprint.cat, sp2.cab, driver.cab, and amd64\stdnames.gpd). This is my 'Have Disc' folder. 
    I followed the 'printui /s' instructions, first changing the permissions mentioned above and then installing the driver. Next I followed the instructions to add a printer from Control Panel 'Devices and Printers' - 'Add Printer', choosing to 'use an existing
    driver' when installing the HP 855c.
    I used a slightly different ntprint.inf, size 1570418. The readable contents of ntprint.inf is as follows. Notice the line 'CatalogFile=ntprint.cat' is not included. I tried using the 1570468 version of ntprint.inf; when I did I received an incompatibility
    message (probably the same one mentioned above).

  • Windows 7 x64 on 2009 MB, step-by-step instructions and solutions

    ok, after spending days on this with about 10+ clean installs on 2 different machines and searching forums about various problems, i'm going to go step by step in a flow-chart like manner to describe the steps and various pitfalls in getting windows 7 ultimate 64 bit installed correctly on a macbook (late 2009)...most of this i didn't figure out on my own, this is a compilation of solutions found by others. i'll try and link or credit anyone i can, but honestly can't remember where i saw all of this. part of this is to share my days of frustration to try and save someone some time. also, in case i have to do this again, i want a record of it so i don't have to start from scratch next time.
    i don't have everything working perfectly, but i have wireless and sound, but not sure if all the drivers are up to date. i'm still working on the headphone issue, i don't have sound yet with headphones, but i got the speakers to work.
    i'm going to preface this by saying that windows 7 is a horrible piece of software, i'm only helping a friend do it because she's an architect and needs autocad, but she wants a mac for daily use. also, i'm doing this from a spanish install of windows 7 (here in south america), so it's a pain to translate this cruddy convoluted OS into english as i'm not familiar with windows 7 anyway, so i'll do my best. i'm not a pc expert. also going to say that the windows 7 x86 and x64 installs i've done on a couple macbook pro 15's seems to work much better (full trackpad functionality, expose works) and without as many problems...i don't know why it doesn't seem to work as well in x64 on the macbook, i'm still investigating.
    also, i want to say that a fresh (first-time) bootcamp partition with windows install after a clean mac os x install seems to produce the best results. i say this because i wasn't happy with all the hacks in my first couple attemtps, so i erased the bootcamp partitions and re-created them to re-install windows 7 again. but i started experiencing some peculiarities that never happened in the first install after a clean Mac OS X install. it's as if the computer leaves artifacts from previous installs and acts funny. also, reboots and start-up times seem to be slower now than when it was a first-time fresh install. anyway, i'll try and outline all the weirdness here, indicated by asterisks *
    SO, HERE GOES:
    1) Go to Bootcamp Utility > Create Bootcamp partition
    2) Afterwards, this should take you to a restart into the windows install dvd....if install dvd boots fine, skip to step 3
    ** if you get a gray screen (happened to me after subsequent re-install attempts), you have to power off and reboot holding down "C" key to boot from the dvd...or you can hold down alt/opt key to get the icons of bootable volumes, at this point it should be mac os x and the windows dvd. the point is, force it to boot from the dvd if it hangs on re-start.
    3) Windows install should start. Select language, etc....You should then get to a screen listing all the partitions (should be 3 of them). Choose the Bootcamp partition and format (erase) it to proceed with the install.
    4) Windows should start installing all the files and will reboot a couple times, here's where things get weird possibly. On the first attempt at installing Windows 7, the install went smoothly on restart.
    ** some of you might get a blinking cursor and a black screen that goes on forever. Supposedly this is a bug in Windows 7, having to do with video drivers or something. I don't understand because my first install attempt, it rebooted just fine and the installation continued.
    anyway, what you have to do here if you get the forever-black screen is power down the machine with the power button and restart holding the alt/option key. this time when you get the bootable volumes on the gray screen, choose the Windows partition, which will now appear. DON'T boot up from the DVD. upon restart into Windows, you should be back in the installation process and it will attempt to finish the install here.
    it might be my imagination, but once i had to reboot into the dvd here to actually finish the install. technically Windows is not finished installing at this step, you just have to figure out how to get past the black screen to finish the install. try both.
    5) Windows should go back to where it left off before the restart, then finish the install.....and restart AGAIN. On my first attempt, the restart went smoothly and started the "first time user" process...
    ** some of you will get the black screen YET AGAIN, this happened to me on my subsequent attempts at re-installing Windows. again, you need to power off and start up holding the alt/option key, choose the Windows partition and it should take you to the "first time user configuration" process....since at this point, windows is indeed installed.
    6) Here you will fill out all your information, product key, etc...and get into Windows. Here you will have some other problems.
    Problem #1: you have no drivers to run Windows on your Mac, so you will need to install Bootcamp in windows from your Mac OS X install dvd
    Problem #2: you have no "right click", because you don't have drivers, so you might not be able to eject the Windows dvd to put in the Mac dvd
    Solutions: you can't control-click or right click, BUT YOU CAN hover over the DVD drive ( "D:" in your computer, my PC or whatever it's called in english) and see if there's an "eject disc" option.
    for some reason, my Windows dvd was spinning and not being recognized, so i just rebooted (alt/option) into Mac OS X and ejected the disc there. the point is, you need to eject the Windows disc and put in the Mac OS X install disc to access Bootcamp for Windows.
    7) Reboot into Windows (if you had to boot into Mac to eject the disc). Insert Mac OS X install disc. Navigate to BootCamp setup.exe and run it.
    ** the first time i did this, it ran no problem. but in subsequent attempts, it gave me the "x64 not supported by this computer" message that everyone seems to encounter. there is a bypass for this outlined here:
    http://www.techulous.com/hardware/how-to-apple-boot-camp-64-bit-for-windows-7-on -unsupported-macs.html
    8) Ok, so now you should have Bootcamp 3.0 installed. Now you need to update it with Bootcamp 3.1 update. Download it here and run it. This is required for 64 bit support, I believe this is the link:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/dl979
    ** hopefully you don't have problems, i didn't, so you might have to search the forums since i can't anticipate what might happen here, it worked for me every time.
    9) Ok, i think it might reboot after the update install. Now you have Bootcamp installed and most of the drivers you need, however not everything works. Some of the drivers will be out of date.
    Problem #1: you may or may not have updated nvidia drivers. mine are ok, but check nvidia website if you have doubts. most of their drivers are for PC hardware, however, so the ones on the bootcamp disk and update should be fine.
    Problem #2: almost everyone has wi-fi connectivity problems. it has to do with the wrong/outdated broadcom drivers from bootcamp. i will outline how i got it to work (based on someone else's solution i found in some forum or other).
    Problem #3: almost everyone is having sound issues. i'll explain what i did. i still have no sound coming out of the headphone jack, i'm working on that next. but i have speaker sound and no red light coming out of the headphone jack.
    ** first of all, you should probably download firefox from internet explorer in windows, then update adobe flash, it's a pain....i used another computer to download the drivers, then transfered them by USB drive, but you can do it however u want.
    Solution to wi-fi: ok, not sure where i got this information, but i downloaded HP drivers in a file called "sp45524.exe"....here's the link:
    http://www.wireless-driver.com/download/hp/hp-broadcom-wireless-lan-windows7-dri ver-v560188.htm
    apparently the broadcom drivers in Bootcamp 3.0 and 3.1 update won't install on Windows 7 x64 for some reason, lot of people are getting "code 10".
    what i did is this:
    9a) run the .exe file, it will create a folder called SWSetup\SP45524 that will house the drivers. there's a setup file in that folder, i didn't try it. perhaps it will install from there, but everything i read suggested a different step. ** if you run the set up file, you may have to run as administrator, or use the "troubleshoot compatibility" trick to get it to work.
    9b) Go to Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Device Manager > Network adapters
    you should uninstall or deactivate any drivers you have. if it's not showing any wi-fi adapter, right click and "check for new hardware" (not sure how it's translated into english from spanish)....you should have an unknown device pop up with the yellow icon and exclamation mark. double click on that, assign it as a network adapter.
    when you get to the driver tabs, you can install it from there. this is where it gets tricky. click "install driver", "check drivers on this computer", "choose from a list of drivers on this computer", "use disc", and in the dialogue box ("install from disc" that says "copy manufacturers files from", navigate to the C: SWSetup|SP45524 folder and click until you can accept. this will load up a different list of drivers.
    (sorry, i'm translating the Windows from spanish to english, and i'm not familiar with exactly what they say in english, so you'll just have to use your imagination)
    you should now have a small list of drivers. personally, i chose the first one on the list "Wi-Fi adapter Broadcom 43224AG 802.11a/b/g/draft-n", but the second one worked also. again, i'm doing this on a late 2009 white macbook (6.1) and it works. according to the date of the driver, it seems like it might not even be the most current and might be older than the one that's on the MAC OS X install disc, but none of the ones on the disc work. this one does. (thanks to whoever found this out, i can't find the original link of the post with this driver reference).
    Solutions to sound: ok, there are multiple posts on this, everything from updating realtek to sigmatel...personally what worked for me was to download the most current Cirrus Logic drivers.
    everyone has been pointing to this post:
    http://www.stuffedcow.net/macbook_audio
    it doesn't really tell you what to do exactly. i'm not even sure what to do, but here's what i did. actually, i downloaded what was supposed to be the CS4207 driver here:
    http://www.cirrus.com/en/products/pro/detail/P1233.html
    then i followed the same procedure as before with the network adapter driver...."install driver", "check drivers on this computer", "choose from a list of drivers on this computer", "use disc", and in the dialogue box ("install from disc" that says "copy manufacturers files from", navigate to the folder you just downloaded from the above link.
    you should have an updated list of drivers. what i don't understand is that the Cirrus site lists the most current driver as CS4207, but the only thing that has 4207 in it starts with CDB. in any case, i chose the last one on the list, CS4206A (AB 99).
    i have no idea why i chose that, it just seemed to be the most current. in any case, sound works now.
    Ok, i tested all this stuff in skype. wifi, microphone and speakers work, isight works. however, still no headphone sound. so if anyone knows how to fix that, please let me know. i haven't gotten to that part yet. but i've spent like over a week trying to figure this out. windows 7 is so horrible that there seems to be so many steps to getting it just right, and i just found myself starting all over (i didn't mention the nightmare with license breaks with AutoCad due to windows reading the clock differently...that's another hack that i had to deal with...and failure meant re-installing everything).
    ok, off to bed now....

    Windows 7 x64 all updates
    Just doublechecking. Does that include the recent chkdsk hotfixes?
