JRE Install hangs Windows XP Pro!

Sorry for being so lame.
It is the first time I'm trying to get myself started to deal with Java.
From the first approach it doesn't seem to be friendly as I was unable to even install the thing.
I'm running jre-1_5_0_06-windows-i586-p.exe and I'm ending with totaly hung Windows. It is totaly and deadly stopped. No mouse, no keyboard, no any signs of life at all.
I thought I might be doing it not in proper order, so I tried to install this jdk-1_5_0_06-windows-i586-p-iftw.exe. It seems to be installed with no problem eve though I don't see any use of it without having JRE or JVM running.
I also noticed that disclaimer note (or whatever it was) of JRE had a scrollbar at the right side. I tried to read it by scrolling it and it was just repeating the last line of text which I had already seen before scrolling.
Sorry again for being so lame, but could anyone be so kind and tell me where is that magical jawa-setup-kit to start from and have NO Windows XP hung ?

Woohoo!
I've found the solution for blanc white screens.
But first I needed to get rid of broken JVM I had installed before. To do this I simply deleted all relevant files from my harddrive and voila! I was able to start everything again.
I disabled all hardware acceleration on my graphics card (nVidia 6800GS). It helped.
This time I installed NetBeans+JDK bundle stright away, without trying to understand the difference between SDK, JDK and "Application Server".
At least I could SEE something.
Oh yes! I saw it! It looks almost exactly as MS Visual Studio. The only disappointing thing was having NO html preview. But the good thing was that I was able to RUN Web-oriented "Hello World!"
The story doesn't end here.
I have another tool to try "Sun Java Studio Creator". According to my expectations this one should show me the preview or some kind of Visual Design mode for html editing.
Just guess what have I done first.
Bingo! I tried to close NetBeans.
Guess what happened...
Bingo! It HUNG MY WINDOWS AGAIN!
"Never Giveup" is one of my principles which never let me down.
So I rebooted my computer again and started installation of magical "Sun Java Studio Creator". It was going well and for my pleasure it let me have a cigarette instead of asking me a lot stupid questions. It was the goood side of it. But there was the dark side as well. Once the progress indicator reached "100%" guess what...
IT HUNG MY WINDOWS AGAIN!
It is very good to have good principles, but I'm getting tired as it's getting late. It is almost midnight and my Java-tutorial is doing its best to turn this night into the real nightmare.
So far I'm having my computer restarted again and I've found where the magical "Sun Java Studio Creator" was hiding from me. I said hiding because I could not see anything in Start Menu. I found it and I ran it.
It worked! It has a really nice face with nice looking html-preview. I like it!
Guess what.
Yeah! The thing doesn't really like me. I tried to run almost empty Web-project with only "Hello world!" typed in very first form. What could be the simplier task for mega-super-powerful-design-tool ?!
It failed to start Application Server and sent mr to read the log.
I have a couple of logs on my backyard, but I definetely have no idea which one to read. I also have no idea what is Application Server and where is its log. Was it that hard to say where to look for one?
Any way. This thing is really making me angry. So I'm downloading "Application Server" and trying to set it up individually, presuming it could not run because my last installation process ended with DEAD WINDOWS.
Guess what happened this time...
Of course! You wouldn't fail to read my mind this time!
Of course it HUNG MY WIDOWS AGAIN!
What else should I turn off on my PC to be able to install whole Magical-JAVA-megapackage ?
May be I should remove my graphic card at all?
What about HDD, RAM and CPU?
I don't know.
What I do know that this night my dreams will be kind of nightmare with JAVA-bucconeers chasing me to HANG UP MY WINDOWS again and again.
PLEASE HELP ME!
PLEASE HURRY UP BEFORE IT STUCKED MY PC COMPLETELY!

How Do I Get PageMaker 6.5 Installed on Windows 7 Pro?

I've been running PageMaker 6.5 in Windows XP Pro SP 3 for several years, but my XP system has broken down and I have had to upgrade to a Windows 7 Pro machine. How can I install PM 6.5 or newer upgrade so I can open, edit, and create new PageMaker files in the Windows 7 Pro operating system?
I'm sure PageMaker has upgraded several times since I last purchased it, but I have no idea what the current upgrade is. What is the oldest, most affordable upgrade which will still open and edit PM 6.5 files and still install in Windows 7 Pro?
Thank you so much. I've written an educational program to teach and help Military Combat Vets who suffer PTSD and I'm doing the training free of charge,so I can't really afford to pay for a major software upgrade.

Thank you both for responding. I do have one system with XP running so I can open PM files and edit and then save as PDF and transfer to the Win. 7 system, unless the XP system dies again.. which still leaves me in an insecure position.
What program took over for PM and still opens old PM 6.5 files? It's scary to think that my crashed XP system is the only link between my good PM files that I still use and disaster. If my XP system dies again and can't be revived, I'm in trouble. Yes, I have two sets of new XP disks but my computer keeps spitting them out... So far, so good... but for how long I don't know. So much for proprietary systems.
Any suggestions for an upgrade from PM to another replacement program that Adobe put in place to carry on with PM files?
Thanks again.

if you're using the same computer hardware to reinstall your cs3, you don't need to deactivate first.
but if there's a significant hardware change you can ask adobe support for an activation count reset. contact adobe support by clicking here and, when available, click 'still need help', https://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html

Can I clean install a Windows 7 Pro System Builder on a Lenovo PC with Windows 8 preinstalled?

Hi. I would like to clean install windows 7 on a Lenovo PC that came with Windows 8 core preinstalled. I want to format the entire drive and remove windows 8 and clean install windows 7. I already tried the clean install of Windows 7 Pro to get all of my drivers in line, and now I would like to buy a Product Key.
Would a Windows 7 Pro System Builder work in my case? Would it work just as smoothly as a retail version? I understand that the System Builder is an OEM version that includes the Product Key, COA, and DVD) Just want to make sure before I buy the System Builder version of Windows 7 Pro. Thanks.
Grazzie
Solved!
Go to Solution.

that should be retail since it seemed to be used for pc upgrades either way your new system builder key should work. those are called refresh because they re-released them sincea bug was found in thier installers. Do you have any key in the computer atm? or is windows just waiting to be activated?
EDIT: its a good copy look here> http://www.heidoc.net/joomla/technology-science/microsoft/14-windows-7-direct-download-links
Should you want to use the DVD images permanently, and don't own a product key yet, you can order a Windows 7 OEM or retail version from Amazon. The OEM reinstallation versions contain a DVD with a product key just like the retail versions. They are significantly cheaper, but lack a proper box packaging, and don't include technical support by Microsoft. The OEM key will work with the Digital River downloads, so you can just pick the cheapest one. Sometimes better editions are the cheaper ones, so all of the following links to Amazon offers might be worth checking. I've already tried to find good deals for all editions and linked to them here:

Clean install of Windows 7 Pro or Enterprise creates update issues on Pavilion G6 notebooks

Hello,
Our small company has 5 older HP Pavilion g6 notebooks running Window 7 Home edition. We wanted to make them, and a few other Acer laptops, part of our domain. So, we did a clean install of Windows 7 Pro (you can't upgrade with a volume license key). After the install, the HP laptops have windows update issues and currupt installs. The Acer laptops installed with no issues. I've tried installing the Enterprise version with the same results. I tried installing from dvd and usb, both with the same results. Any idea?
Thank You

Hi, Sorry for the late reply. It seems to be kinda stable now. Updates would never work from the getgo. I had to reinstall update agent a few times and run the update troubleshooter found here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/gp/windows-update-issues/en-us Until I got it working, I used Autopatcher to install updates. However, the computer isn't stable enough though to allow someone to use it for work. I don't recommend doing a clean install on these machines.

Satellite L655 - Sound not working on fresh install of Windows 7 Pro x64

Howdy all,
I purchased an L655-S5111 from Newegg that was on sale, put an SSD into it, and then installed a legitimate copy of Windows 7 Professional 64-bit I received from my current employer (I'm an IT guy). I've updated to the latest BIOS revision (1.70), and I've got all Windows updates installed, all drivers installed, including the correct Conexant HD Audio and ATI HDMI Audio drivers. Unfortunately, sound does not work. Sound worked briefly when I first installed Windows 7, then I muted it until I could get it set up with headphones. When I unmuted it, it had ceased to work.
This laptop is less than 3 weeks old at this point, and I get no audio over headphones or speakers, although Windows clearly shows no issues with the drivers, they're the latest version, on a fresh install, and I can see the audio in the mixer playing. The microphone built-in to the laptop does pick up sound as well. I believe that this is most likely not an issue of physical interconnection, but more likely a software level issue, I'm just having trouble identifying where it is at.
I also have no related error messages anywhere in the event logs.

I have two problems with installing the recovery image:
1) I didn't get a copy of the recovery media with the system
2) The recovery media would install Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit which is what came with the laptop.
Since I have legitimately licensed copies of Windows 7 Pro/Enterprise 64-bit, I would much rather install that. Since I used the drivers and software from the Toshiba website for this particular model, it should be working. There should be no functional difference between the recovery media and a fresh Windows install from the Microsoft-provided Windows media and Toshiba provided drivers from their website.
As you can see in the sysinfo (I'm assuming Keany the respondent is the admin that approved my post and edited it, thus had access to the data which was removed) I have all the Toshiba software and drivers installed, identically to if this was the recovery image, I just have it on a different edition of Windows 7.
I'm open to any other suggestions, but unfortunately it is not possible to do the above.

Icloud doesn't work after a clean install of windows 8 pro and office 2010

After installing the 'iCloud Control Panel for Windows v2.0' on my cleanly built laptop. I now getting the following error after activation the mail option under the iCloud Control Panel 'Setup can't Continue Because Outlook isn't configured to have a default profile. Check your Outlook settings and try again'..
I have done this add also added a second email address and change the new email address to be the default email address.
I've also done the following as well....
Ideally the error message you have mentioned is related to iCloud. But you may try these steps as you have already tried re-installing the iCloud control panel and sign in back to sync with Outlook:
Check if there is any new updated version of iCloud released for Windows 8.
1. Sign out from iCloud control Panel.
2. Go to Outlook -> Click on File -> Options -> Add-ins.
3. Select Com Add-ins in Manage -> Click on GO.
4. Disable all the Add-ins -> Click OK to save the settings.
Now go to iCloud Control panel and sign into the iCloud account. Open Outlook and check if you are able to sync.
however the same original error still accures. can i also point out i have delete the all the os and applications and started again by rebuilding the os windows 8 pro but this time using ms office 2013 and the error 'Setup can't Continue Because Outlook isn't configured to have a default profile. Check your Outlook settings and try again' happens again als did option 1-4 from above as well and the error still happens.
Any Idea's?

Windows 8 is not supported on Boot Camp, that may or may not be part of your issue but it makes troubleshooting difficult. Post in Microsofts forums as well, that error message is not limited to Boot Camp installations, regular Windows users also get it.

Itunes installed on Windows xp Pro 64 bit

I just built a new computer using an AMD 64x2 processor. The operating system is Windows XP Pro 64. I used Itunes on my old 32 bit xp, but now I can't get Itunes installed on the 64. Is there a different driver I need to install and if so where can I get it.

Here's a tip from another user that might work; I can't vouch for it myself:
If you've got Vista x64, you need to open a Command Prompt box and run the command there, changing directories first:
cd c:\windows\SysWOW64
regsvr32 /u vbscript.dll
You'll also need to configure a symlink to help iTunes find Quicktime:
mkdir "c:\Program Files (x86)\QuickTime"
mklink /d "c:\Program Files\QuickTime" "c:\Program Files (x86)\QuickTime"
After installation, you should probably close the Big Fat VBScript Security Hole:
regsvr32 /u vbscript.dll
Hope that helps.

Won't Install on Windows XP Pro

Oh my gosh, I have tried everything! Flash Player simply
won't install. What's the alternative?
The problem is on my Dell Inspiron Laptop. I am able to
install and use Flash Player on the other user accounts on my
laptop, but not on my user account. I have set all users to limited
and only me as the administrator. I have uninstalled all spyware
but McAffe, and I have stopped it from running. I have set all my
internet options to enable everything to the point my computer is
completely insecure. I have uninstalled Flashplayer, checked
Windows/System32/Macromedia to see it is gone. I have restarted my
computer.
I have checked the registry key in Windows. It doesn't have
anything listed under permissions. But when I sign on as the other
user that Flashplayer downloads and works, the registry key
permissions are identical...empty. I've stopped every process,
every application possible. I've downloaded unsuccessfully,
uninstalled, restarted, and completed the process over and over
again.
At this point I am completely compromising my computer just
to try to get Flashplayer to work.
Any ideas? This is so frustrating!

As suggested, I unistalled PSE 7; paused Kaspersky Internet Security program (I am not running any Norton/Symantec programs); and reinstalled from the original CD. The installation process (again) completed with apparent success. Nevertheless, the program will not load. It generates the same error messages as before:

I am running Windows XP Pro with Service Pack 3. My CPU is an AMD Athlon 64 3500+ = 2.21GHz. SysInfo reports 2.93GB of RAM.
Any other suggestions?

Apple Mobile Device Support fails to install on Windows XP Pro SP2

I have a dualboot between my Vista and my XP, my itunes on Vista works great and can connect with my ipod touch (2.1) but on my XP the installation of AMDS fails. Tried completly re-installing all services, i searched the internet for possible solutions but it seems i'm the only one having problems with windows XP, all the other similar problems are on Vista.
I know it's AMDS that fails because i unpacked the .exe file and ran all the installers one by one, they all work except AMDS (i get a rollback feature). I downloaded it with 3 different browsers from the official apple site and to eliminate that it's my hard drive that gives errors i also did a CHKDSK.
Also, it's not my ipod either, it can connect to my Vista and other computers with windows XP.
All the latest drivers are installed and during the installation no CD/USB was inserted except my mouse, i even tried it with the CD tray open (sometimes helps). Safe mode also doesn't work
I have no idea what's wrong. Could anyone help me out?

Hi,
good news: You're not the only one with this problem. Bad news: I don't have a solution either. To restrict possible answers here is what I did so far:
- computer was set up brand new with Windows XP Pro SP2
- iTunes installed, AMDS didn't, everything deleted after this, nothing (no iTunes, no Quicktime, no Apple updater) left on computer
- disconnected laptop from network, switched off firewall, switched off virus scan
- ran install package for AMDS only, as Johan described, install won't finish, files are first copied then everything gets rolled back (and no log found). This means the service is not existing, so the problem is NOT solved by going into services and switch it on ...
ANYONE PLEEEASE?
Cheers & thanks

Decreased Volume When Drivers Installed With Windows XP Pro

Hi,
I recently installed Windows XP Pro (OEM) SP2, I am using the Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS sound card. I installed first "EAX4DRV_AUDIGY2__84_50" driver and then updated to "SBA2_PCWDRV_LB__84_55" driver, however I have experienced a decrease in the volume from my speakers since going from SP to SP2. I have no other Creative software installed for the ZS, I use the controls in Windows XP for other changes to the set up. I am using the Logitech Z680 speakers. Nothing else has changed in my set up except the change from SP to SP2. The onboard sound card is "disabled" in the BIOS. The quality of the sound has NOT changed, it is still excellent.
What would be the possible cause of this decrease in volume?
Many thanks for your suggestions.
Message Edited by jbloggs on 0-6-2005 :2 PM

I'm getting the same problem, and I don't know what to do about it!!! I've updated all of my drivers, but the volume is still not as loud as it used to be.
As you said, the quality is still exceptional, but the volume level is lowered. I can still crank it up pretty loud, but not near as loud as before.
Every once and awhile the volume level will suddenly jump up to an ear shattering level, then back down to where it currently resides... this can really scare you if you have it cranked up at the time.

Itunes x64 will not install on windows 8 pro

I am unable to install Intunes 84 on my PC running Windows 8 Pro. Error message is error writing to file C:\ProgramData\34BE82C4-E596-4e99-A191-52C6199EBF69\w64\w64\GEARAspiWDM.sys Verify that you have access to that directory

That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

Do I Need To Install Lenovo Drivers After A Fresh Install Of Windows 7 Pro

I've just installed Windows 7 Pro (with SP1) on a Lenovo ThinkPad Edge and after running the Lenovo System Update utiltiy it doesn't list any drivers that need installing.
When I had a look at the Drivers & Downloads section of this website it lists lots of Windows 7 drivers available for the laptop.
I've looked in Device Manager and there are no issues reported so do I leave it as is or do I download all the drivers and install them?
www.fazzasblog.co.uk - www.helpdeskrules.co.uk

There are certain drivers that I will have to install such as the ThinkVantage Active Protection System which is one of the great things about Lenovo laptops.
I'm just surprised that after running the the ThinkVantage System Update it said there were no driver updates available for my system.
The System Update is a fantastic idea, in my experience of using it on over 120 laptops, it's only around 70% usefull and a lot of manual driver downloading is still needed.

Which version of sql server should i install in windows 8 pro 32bit?

i have installed sql server 2012 express x64 advanced edition.when i'm trying for setup it is showing a pop up window saying "compatibility problem please check this system requriments and contact software publisher" I have windows 8 pro 32 bit
OS.Please give me a solution for this problem.

you cannot install a x64 software on a 32 bit OS.
Download SQL 2012 express x86 advanced edition or Download SQL 2014 express x86 advanced edition
ENU\x86\SQLEXPRADV_x86_ENU.exe
Regards, Ashwin Menon My Blog - http:\\sqllearnings.com
Ashwin this is not correct :). You can install standalone 32 bit SQL Server on 64 bit OS. This is not supported for cluster setup. This environment is specifically called WOW64. As per
Books online doc
WOW64 Support:
WOW64 (Windows 32-bit on Windows 64-bit) is a feature of 64-bit editions of Windows that enables 32-bit applications to run natively in 32-bit mode. Applications function in 32-bit mode, even though the underlying operating system is a 64-bit operating system.
On a supported 64-bit operating system, SQL Server 32-bit edition can be installed to the WOW64 32-bit subsystem of a 64-bit server. WOW64 is supported only for stand-alone instances of SQL Server. WOW64 is not supported for SQL Server failover cluster installations.
For SQL Server 64-bit edition installations on supported 64-bit operating systems, Management Tools are supported in WOW64. For more information about supported operating systems, select an edition of SQL Server 2014 from the sections below.
Yona,
As suggested you should install 64 bit version of SQL Server on 64 bit machine
