Labview RT dualboot with Windows 7 (Boot magic doesn't work)

I'm trying to setup a desktop RT controller with both Labview RT and Windows 7. I can't seem to get the two on one bootloader screen. I have found that I need to boot into the RT partion either through the ready made USB in max external USB (EFI) or set as active (which causes windows to no longer be bootable). Much thanks.

Why not just boot directly off the partition?  There are 2 rules for working with LabVIEW Real-Time from a partition:
1.  On IDE, you can only use the primary drive.  It doesn't always work if you're using a primary slave or a secondary drive or secondary slave.  On SATA, use SATA0 for best compatibility.
2.  It's best if the FAT32 partition you create for RT is located within the first 2GB of the disk.  Actually, it's best if you limit your FAT32 partition to 1GB in size (FAT32 degrades in performance and reliability the bigger you make the partition) and make the FAT32 partition start at the beginning of the drive.  Once you format the FAT32 partition with the USB key, you can boot off it.  Keeping the partition within the first 2GB of the disk is strictly for the 16-bit boot loader, it cannot address beyond 2GB so if your files could end up 4GB into the disk you've got problems.
The tool I like using is System Commander for dual-booting, the benefit is being able to hide boot partitions from OS's that don't need them (if you want to hide one OS from the other).  I'd imagine you can use other boot systems the same way.

  • Wi-Fi Sync with Windows 7 PC doesn't work

    I have both an iPhone 5s and iPad-3. I use iTunes (latest version) in a Windows 7 PC. No problems to sync with the USB cable, but Wi-Fi sync is totally unreliable.  I have spend lots of time reading all the information available online. Wi-Fi sync is configured right.  It is not a problem with either Antivirus software or the Firewall (I have tried disabling both).  I re-installed iTunes following the Apple support note on the subject.  On one time after I reinstalled, Wi-Fi worked, but only for the first sync.  When I turn on Wi-Fi in the iPad and iPhone, the iDevice always appear in iTunes but for a short while and it then dissapears. It is clear that they have some problem during the communication but neither iTunes nor the iDevice report any kind of error I could use to try to fix the problem.
    It is really frustrating, and I work in IT ... From what I have seen online, I am not alone with this problem. I have several iphone/iPad apps that do Wi-Fi syncs with applications in the Desktop, and they work every time.  I don't undertand why Apple can not implement a reliable Wi-Fi sync with iTunes.  I don't think it is to sell more Apple computers/laptops since there are many with those that have the same kind of problem. Could it be to sell more USB cables ?.

  • I bought an external hard drive for backups to use with Time Machine, but however when I try to connect it with the other windows laptop it doesn't work ? intact it doesn't work on any other device except my MAC ?

    I bought an external hard drive for backups to use with Time Machine, but however when I try to connect it with the other windows laptop it doesn't work ? intact it doesn't work on any other device except my MAC ?

    Do not worry about it.
    Time Machine needs that your external drive is formatted in HFS+, or better known as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)". This filesystem is used by Apple on Macs and Windows cannot read or write drives formatted with this filesystem, being this the reason why all your devices do not read the external drive except your Mac.
    You can only use your external drive to make Time Machine drives. If you store anything different, you may damage the Time Machine structure, so it is better not to use it as a drive to store other data. Instead, get another external drive to do it or create a second partition on the external drive formatted in FAT32 by using Disk Utility > http://pondini.org/OSX/DU3.html FAT32 can be read by Windows PCs

  • HT1296 When I sync my iphone with Windows 7, the contact moves to my computer, but the contact is not complete. No phone numbers. What am I doing wrong? I have also tried sync-ing with Yahoo, and that doesn't work either.

    The music sync is one way - computer to iphone.  The only exception is itunes purchases.  File>Transfer Purchases
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer for just such an occasion.  Use your backup copy to move everything to your new computer.

    macfriedchikkin's reply would make sense to you if you were trying to open a camera, but if you are trying to view streming media from a web site that is a different story. It helps to be very specific about what you are tyring to do on these forums.
    I belive you would go into Firefox Preferences menu and tell it  to use VLC as the application to play WMV files. I'm still running Tiger,  however, so I can't tell you if it the latest version works wel that way. The Tiger version doesn't seem to, but a lot may have changed since then. (I'm only just getting around to installing Leopard next week now that there are too may apps I can't run on Tiger. ) Perhaps someone else on this forum can better help you set  up the player in your browser.
    Or you can cut out the middleman and give VLC the direct video URL:
    Choose Open File from the File menu and paste in the URL of the video, say,
    http://azul.streamguys.com/auduboncal-1
    or http://azul.streamguys.com/auduboncal-2
    Your media should play this way. Dont forget to save the playlist for later.
    I'l keep investigating on my end, and yes, I'm also  encouraging certain people who are streaming windows media in to switching to a different format

    Opening files with Illustrator and photoshop doesn't work, i have to drag the files from finder in to the program.
    This problem appears after opening 4 a 5 files, rebooting helps another 4 a 5 times and appears again.

    I'd recommend reposting in the Boot Camp forum, that is where the Boot Camp and Windows gurus hang out.
    Good luck.

    Okay, here's an update: the DVI to ADC adapter does work with the Apple displays that I have tried, but it won't work with the Formac. I have tried multiple time to contact them, but to no avail... they don't even respond to threats of posting my opinion of them, which is this:

  • I tried to airdrop Civilization V from a Macbook Pro with Mountain Lion to a Macbook Pro with Lion and it doesn't work. Other apps have but Civ V has not.

    Likely because it's a not self contained and/or it's game and copy protected, so install it via the developers instructions instead, which likely means it will have ot be uninstalled off the first machine, the developer contacted for a new license key before installing on the newer machine.
    If you want it on both machines, you will need to likely buy another license.
    Most developers are fine with transfering license between machines, you have to contact them.
    They just want to make sure it's only on one machine so they are not getting robbed.

    Hello BassoonPlayer,
    Since you are using one of the the school's Macbooks, it is quite possible that the time and date are not properly set on the computer that you are using.  FaceTime will not work if you do not have the proper time zone set up for the location that you are in.  This past week, there were a two other Macbook users I've helped by simply telling them to set the Date/Time properly.  By the way, you described your problem very well, which makes it easier for us to help you.  Hope this solves your problem -- if not, post back and I can suggest other remedies.

    Hello Kiira Doon,
    The troubleshooting steps detailed below may help get your iPhone's display to function.
    Toggle the ringer switch to see if the unit vibrates. If it does, it could be that iPhone is getting power, but is not displaying any image.
    Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
    While connected to the iPhone charger, try to reset the iPhone.
    If the low-battery screen appears, charge the iPhone.
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?Contact Apple Support.
