Latest Bootcamp drivers (June 2010) comatible with Windows XP 54 Bit?

Hi
I am planning on updating my existing BootCamp partition to windows Xp 64 Bit edition on my MacBook Pro so it uses all my 4 gigs of RAM but I was wandering if the latest drivers would be compatible with it because in the description of the latest update in the Apple Downloads page it says that this 64 bit drivers update needs XP, Vista or 7, but in BootCamp assistant it says it needs Xp 32 Bit specifically.
I can't install windows 7 or Vista because I have very limited space in my HardDrive and I would have to make a very large partition.
Here is what says in the download description, just in case.
( About Boot Camp Software Update 3.1 for Windows 64 bit
This update adds support for Microsoft Windows 7 (Home Premium, Professional, and Ultimate), addresses issues with the Apple trackpad, turns off the red digital audio port LED on laptop computers when it is not being used, and supports the Apple wireless keyboard and Apple Magic mouse.
This update is highly recommended for all Boot Camp 3.0 users.
System Requirements
::Windows XP:: ??? (This is my question)
Windows Vista SP2
Boot Camp 3.0 )

Thanks

Were you able to successfully use wireless and an NVidia driver? I missed that 64 bit XP was not supported. Anyway, I was able to work around a number of things; but I can't get XP to recognize the graphics hardware or install the Nvida drivers. I'd persist if I could get this to work. Were you able to?
Thanks for any help.

    Hi All,
    no bluetooth showing on system with the latest bootcamp drivers. A 'Base System Device' is showing in Device Manager with an error, but I can't point it to a driver and don't know where to get one.

  • Is CS3 Design Standard compatible with Windows 7 64-bits and MS Office 2010 Pro Plus?

    Hi,
    I have been googling around to see if Adobe CS3 Design Standard is compatible with Windows 7 64-bits with MS Office 2010 Pro Plus, but I couldn't find a decent answer.
    If anyone here has any idea on this, please let me know.
    As far as i know Adobe CS3 comes with Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro which is not compatible with MS Office 2010, so I am sort of worried that I will need to upgrade my CS3 to CS6.
    Any advises are welcome.
    Thanks.

    I don't know if Acrobat 8 is Win 7 64 bit compatible or if it's supported. The rest of the apps should be fine.
    But I do think you'll have issues with Office 2010 files being placed into InDesign.
    Moving to CS6 is something you should be thinking about very soon. You only get upgrade pricing until the end of the year, but I highly recommend taking a look at Creative Cloud. At $29.99/month for the first year it's a bargain.

  • Does Microsoft Sync work with Windows 7 64 bit Outlook 2010 when you connect via Bluetooth?

    I was using Microsoft Sync and connecting to my laptop using the sync cable when I was running a 32 bit OS and Windows Vista. I just got my new laptop and it has Outlook 2010 running on Windows 7 64 bit. I've read it'll still work using bluetooth to connect vs the  ync cable. Has anyone been successful doing it that way?

    Nope. The printer now appears in the list, but I can't print to it. The port is shown as:

    I am having sync problems with windows 7 64 Bit.
    The iPhone syncs a few tracks then hangs, a few minutes later itunes tells me the iphone has timed out.
    Anyone have any ideas about this. I have tried different USB ports, cleaned the apple USB cable contacts with Servisol, restored the iPhone and reinstalled itunes.
    iPhone and iTunes are latest versions.
    Thanks

    "Try this connect the iPhone, let the mtp driver installation fail, then go into the device manager and uninstall the unknown mtp device. If you then scan for new hardware from the device manager it should recognize the iPhone & update the driver."
    Ok here's what I did:
    1) Connect the iPhone (iTunes had been installed)
    2) No MTP driver installation is happening as Windows detects iPhone successfully
    3) Open Device Manager
    4) There seems to be 2 drivers for iPhone that are active now, although I still can't see which one is the MPT driver you're referring to.
    One of them sits under Portable Devices: "Apple iPhone". If I view the details of this driver, it lists the following files:
    - C:\Windows\system32\DRIVERS\UMDF\WpdMtpDr.dll
    - C:\Windows\system32\DRIVERS\winusb.sys
    - C:\Windows\system32\DRIVERS\WUDFRd.sys
    - C:\Windows\system32\WpdMtp.dll
    - C:\Windows\system32\WpdMtpUS.dll
    The other one sits under Universal Serial Bus controllers: "Apple Mobile Device USB Driver". And as indicated by Joe above, it lists the following files when I view the Details:
    - C:\Windows\system32\Drivers\usbaapl64.sys

  • Adobe PDF Printer not working as print driver; 9.5.5 (pro) with Windows 7, 64 bit

    I have installed, repaired, uninstalled and re-installed Acrobat Pro 9.5.5 on a newly formatted SSD with Windows 7, 64 bit on my desktop machine. The program was installed from Acrobat Pro 9.0.0 and updated within the program. I have the program also installed on my laptop, and the Adobe PDF Printer driver is working properly on my laptop.
    On my desktop with the newly formatted SSD, the Adobe PDF printer driver is not working. Note that I am using the printer driver, and not any pdf creation techniques within MS Office or other programs.
    When I go to the Adobe PDF printing preferences on my desktop, I only get a generic, two tab window open. When I print a file to this printer on my desktop machine, I do not get a window opening that asks where to create the pdf or what to name it, and I never see any files created. In MS Word, the Create PDF option under the Acrobat tab works and opens a dialog to ask the name and location to save, and then opens a PDF Maker progress window and properly creates the file. I can also save a file as an .eps or .ps file and use Distiller to create the pdf. However I cannot get the Adobe PDF printer driver in my Devices and Printers to work properly, although it works just fine on my laptop with the same program (Pro 9.5.5) and same Windows version (7, 64 bit).
    Repairing, uninstalling and re-installing does not solve the problem. Acrotray.exe *32 process is running. Any ideas on why this won't run properly on my desktop, but will run on a similarly configured laptop?
    On my laptop, I get a full, (7) tabl menu with all the normal options:

    I found this answer from Deepak Chauhan on another forum, and it solved this problem!
    Try this to add Adobe PDF printer manually on Windows 7, and Windows Vista.
    If windows 7 is Enterprise or better edition: (Admin rights required)
    Start>search for printmanagement.msc and open the print management module
    Expand the print server and expand the computer name to see availbale printers, drivers and printer ports.
    - from printers ensure there's no Adobe PDF printer, if there is delete it
    - go to ports and delete the PDF ports (the ones ending in *.pdf)
    - go to drivers and delete the PDF converter.
    Take note if any errors occur, but continue with the following steps regardless.
    If on windows 7 home edition, just goto start>Devices and Printers and ensure PDF pritner is not listed.
    Then open the registry (if any erors deleting these keys happen, see below)
    1: go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Print\Printers
    delete any adobe PDF printer subkey present
    2: go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Monitors
    delee the PDF port monitor if present
    3: go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Printers
    again delete and pdf printer subkey
    If any erros occur, you need to set the owner of the key to the currently logged in admin user, then ensure that user has full control.
    Do this by right-click the key and selecting permissions, clicking on advanced, then the owner tab.
    Once you've all that has been done, open a command line as administrator.
    Copy and pate the following commands in order
    1: net stop spooler
    2: rundll32.exe setupapi.dll,InstallHinfSection AdobePDFPortMonitor 128 C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat\Xtras\AdobePDF\AdobePDF.inf
    3: net start spooler
    4:rundll32.exe printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /if /b "Adobe PDF" /f "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat\Xtras\AdobePDF\AdobePDF.inf" /r "Documents\*.pdf" /m "Adobe PDF Converter"
    That should set back the pdf printer.
    This seemed to provide the link that provided the Adobe PDF Settings tab to the Adobe PDF Printing Preferences that was missing!

  • I am dual booting my mackbook pro with windows 7 64 bit. Yesterday it started locking up at the disk drive selections screen, when you hold down the "option" butting when powering on. I have been searching all morning, and so far nothing. Thanks. :)

    Hey folks,
    I have been using bootcamp for months now with windows 7 64 bit, and its been fine, yesterday while I was rebooting to do some gaming, at the hard drive selection screen when you boot holding the "options" butting down, it locks up when I select the windows drive and just sits there for ever. It doesn't throw an error, it boots fine into Lion.
    I searched all morning and didn't find anything, was hoping that someone might have an idea.
    Thanks in advance

    Search again. Microsoft has tips on what to do and Windows has a number of features
    system restore points
    automatic system repair using the Win7 DVD
    system restore image creation
    Just like you would with OS X Lion and Lion Recovery and Repair
    Use WinClone 3 www.twocanoes.com $20 to make an image just like you would with Disk Utility Restore or Carbon Copy Cloner
    rollback to last known good boot check point
    rollback a driver or program or any changes
    clean out temp files
    clean registry
    chkdsk

    Hey everyone,
    I've got a SB Extigy which has served me just awesome for years and years now. ?I recently upgraded to a better computer with Windows 7 64 bit, and have found that the driver CD which came with the card will no longer install on this OS. ?Windows will recognize it; the rear stereo out and the headphone out are acti've (both at the same time!) however the volume control knob no longer works, the remote doesn't work (I mainly use it just for volume) but most importantly the MIDI ports don't work. ?I use this computer to make music, so I really need to get the MIDI ports operational or get a new card. ?Since this card has been working so beautifully for so long, I don't want to switch unless I absolutely have to. ?I have tried running the CD install in compatibility mode for XP/2000 but no dice. ?I found [url="http://forums.creative.com/t5/Windows-7/Extigy-Drivers-for-Windows-7/m-p/54202" rel="nofollow">another thread[/url] on here where this guy seemed to get it to work, but didn't really leave instructions as to how. ?He gave[url="http://members.driverguide.com/driver/detail.php?driverid=93720" rel="nofollow"> this link [/url]to download the drivers, but there is no exe in there.... how can I install these drivers without the installerI went to the device manager and tried to do an update driver with the source pointed to these files, but I informs me I currently have the most up to date driver already installed.

  • Broken ATI Mobility FireGL V5700 for W500 with Windows 7 - 64 bit

    Hello all,
    My setup is Lenovo Thinkpad W500 with Windows 7 - 64 bit
    Display card is a ATI Mobility FireGL V5700
    My graphics drivers used to be functional but now I have lost a lot of functionality (mostly graphics issues).
    My two biggest issues are:
    Many video games will crash/break because of my drivers apparently
    Lost switchable graphics completely (the ability to change from FireGL V5700 to the low power card)
    To clearly state: It is impossible to download these drivers from AMD, AMD themselves tell you to go to Lenovo
    This is because Lenovo is responsible for the display card drivers in their own laptops.
    I have not modified my computer. I believe that Lenovo's updates broke my laptop's functions.
    How do I FIX this??
    Nothing works from Lenovo's website. I've installed all their updates and the issues persist.
    The Lenovo Solution Center tells me that everything is up to date.
    Windows Update tells me everything is up to date.
    I am NOT reformatting my computer, that is a rediculous thing to say when everyone is clearly having this issue.
    What is the deal here? This laptop cost a very large amount of money and now it just broke itself? I don't believe it.

    Ok thank you, this is likely a BIOS related issue now.
    As you can see, Power Manager does not provide a switchable graphics option:
    Device Manager only recognizes the high power graphics card (FireGL V5700) and not the low power card
    Here is my BIOS settings for the display adapter:
         Default Primary video Device: INTERNAL
         Boot Display Device: THINKPAD LCD
         Graphics Device: DISCRETE GRAPHICS
         OS Detection for Switchable Graphics: DISABLED

  • Labview 2012 Installer builder issues with Windows 7 64 bit

    I have a clients project application program I am working on and am having a lot of trouble getting installed applications to work on Windows 7 properly. The Labview Installer sets the default installation directory to "c:\Program Files\" on Windows Xp and on Windows 7 64bit this defaults to "C:\Program Files (x86). When I install the application on Windows 7 and run it, because Windows 7 64 bit unreasonably protects this directory and every folder under it, if you try to write file to any subdirectory under it (like a reports directory), windows 7 will not let the file write to the directory and the file(s) disappear and you get permission errors. This has been difficult to address. Even logging in as administrator, I have difficulty changing the folder permissions. In addition, when I am in the file write process, if the default directory is coded to come up in the file Open/Save dialog, will not properly
    go to and display these protected directories. So thinking that OK, I'll just chage the install directory to something direct to the C: drive and not the Program Files (x86) directory, so I have better control of the folder permissions. Now the Installer build gives errors. It built, but the install fails. Looks like National did not test this for Windows 7 very well. I have run into just about every issue possible with Windows 7 and Labview. Clearly Labview was not very well tested with Windows 7 6 bit. I do not have the Internet toolkit added to the application, only the VISA 5.2 driver. Anyone else having application issues with Labview and Windows 7 and have ideas how to work around this??

    It's no NI's fault and has nothing to do with 64 Bit either. It is something MS changed starting with Vista, namely tightening security of the whole system to a similar level as was usual on more professional OSes like Unix 20 years earlier. A user has not rights anymore to write into the location where applications are installed. This is for one reason to protect installed applications from being modified by malicious code.
    Instead every application should write its runtime data in one of the user writable loacations such as the user's Documents directory for data files, or in the user's or the machine's configuration directory for configuration settings. For single installations you could always set the directory which your application got installed into to be user writable by changing the rights of that directory afterwards but for applications that get installed on normal user computers this is a VERY hacky and discouraged move. Same about installing your application into the root of your system drive. I think it was an oversight by MS to not protect that directory too from user modifications, but was most likely unavoidable to allow DOS application installations to still work.
    LabVIEW has functions to retrieve a whole bunch of those preconfigured and user writeable locations and you really should change your application to make use of those locations, instead of trying to write into the installation directory or installing the application into the root location of the system drive, if you want to be compatible with Windows Vista/7/8.
    Windows 7 also requires for a number of actions such as installing programs or drivers so called elevated rights. This means that even if you are logged in as administrator you have to explicitedly provide the admin password again to be able to perform the action. This can be done by starting the program as administrator, when this is available in the right click pop-up menu, and is also sometimes done automatically for applications that Windows determines to need those rights such as setup programs for installations.

    Hello:
    I have been dealing with BSOD for the last 8 months, but my hardware appears fine.  I thought the problem was related to some wrong DELL drivers for my DELL VOSTRO 3750 with Windows 7 64 bit.  Tried for a few months to solve the problem with DELL
    customer service.  My warranty ran out May 31, 2014.  I had DELL come and replace the network card and the fan because I was having overheating issues and some of the indications from the bluescreen messages seemed to point at the network card.  A
    month after warranty ran out, I was still getting BSOD so I tried uninstalling and reinstalling original drivers from DELL.  Worked fine for a couple of months. Then the BSODs came back again everyday or 2.
    Is there anyone in the Microsoft world that can help?
