Minimum Files needed for bare bones XP Install?`

Hello
I'm new here having recently bought my first MBP. Does anyone know the minimum files needed for a custom (lite) XP Pro install using BootCamp?
All I want to run is DV-Rack plus maybe 1 or 2 other programs but I don't want to waste space on my 200gb HD. I do't even want to install MS Office because I like iWorks better.
Thanks
Allen

My recommendation is nothing short of 12GB. For your purposes, that you indicated in your post, 12GB should be fine. Please also consider any future uses that you may have for Windows XP. I have seen several times, on this forum, where a user sets the partition too low and then wishes to increase the size and it cannot be done unless Boot Camp and Windows is re-installed from scratch.
If you can afford the disk space then I would even recommend 32GB and that would allow you to have some space left for future programs if any.

    Hello Denise,
    Welcome to the Sony Community.
    All of the Sony internal optical drives are plug & play with Windows so no drivers are required for detection in your PC. If you are having issues getting your drive detected then please try the following:
    • Ensure the Sony drive is set as a secondary master by itself. If you have another disc burner or a zip drive on the same IDE cable, please separate them.
    • Ensure you have the latest Service pack for your Windows operating system and any other updates for your system installed.
    service, storage support email
    • Please remove your secondary IDE channel from the Device Manager.
    If the issue is still not resolved, service may be required. You may contact the Sony Storage support team by e-mail at: [email protected] for further information.
    Thank you for your post.

    Can synced photos on my iPad be sent back to my Mac? I lost pics in my iPhoto file needed for a presentation.

    And of course I forgot about the built in way to send them back to the Mac .... Email them. You can email up to 5 photos at at time.
    Launch the photos app, while looking at the photos in thumbnail view - tap the arrow icon in the upper right corner - tap on up to 5 photos at a time - Tap the Share button in the upper left corner - tap email from the resulting window.

  • I have downloaded the two files needed for the upgrade of Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 to version 12 but I cannot open them to make them run and install. What am I supposed to do. One is a very large .7z file just over 1gb in size.

    How do I open  up a .7z file just over 1gb in size? I have just downloaded this as an upgrade from Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 to version 12. I cannot see any sign of the Akamai program on my computer that is supposed to open and install the two files that I downloaded.

    Thanks Hans
    I don’t mind mountain climbing but anything serious to do with a computer scares me silly.
    I installed the 64 bit version of 7zip and once I figured out how to tell the computer to use the right application within that to open the 7zip file, the big file opened and I was able to apply the .exe file to get things going and installed. In the end the default location the installation chose was program files x86 which I think is the 32 bit folder but it all seems to be ok now.
    Many thanks again for your response.
    Cheers

  • Kit requirements for bare bones HDCAM edit

    I asked about upgrading my system a few weeks back and everyone was very helpful, but having gone away and done some research I simply can't afford a lot of the kit that was suggested. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas for the editor on a serious budget. I'm used to working with HDV and frankly this is all a bit scary ..
    I've got a short film shot on HDCAM that I need to edit. I don't need to be able to grade it myself so I'm hoping this means I can make do with my existing 19 inch monitor and not worry about buying video cards, 23 inch cinema displays and matrox mxo's etc.
    If I use prores to capture the HDCAM footage how much visual quality would I lose? and would it mean I could buy something like the Caldigit S2VR Duo to work from rather than a massive raid drive that would set me back thousands of pounds?
    I'm presuming id need to buy a pci card as well and i'll rent an hd deck for the capture itself.
    Have I missed anything out? And does this actually sound like a workable idea?
    Any help would be really appreciated.
    Thanks.

    I don't really think you can have a bare bones system and still be able to work with HDCAM. One thing you might want to consider is having footage captured for you at a post facility and placed onto a portable drive. Perhaps the CalDigit S2VR as Shane suggested, or a G-RAID. If you are in LA there are several facilities that can do this including West Post Digital in Santa Monica and Alpha Dogs in Burbank.
    When you are done editing, go back to the post facility and have them do your layoffs for you. Working with HDCAM is a bit more complicated than working with HDV. And a bit more expensive as well.

  • Text file needed for Defor01

    hi,,
         i need the text file for (Delfor01)Idoc type.
    whether its possible to see, if means say me the steps,
    Or Say the links to refer..
    Advance thaks.

    Hi Bala,
    It is possible to generate IDoc in XML format file.
    You need to maintain file port for XML (t/code WE21) and ensure the partner profile (t/code WE20) output pointed to XML file port.
    In this case, when IDoc generated SAP system will take care all conversion format.
    This could be applied for inbound process as well (SAP receives XML file from external system/SAP).
    Hope this will help.

  • Minimum files needed from JRE to distribute Java Application

    Hello,
    We have developed a Java Desktop Application (A Viewer for projects created in Microsoft Project). The core application is around 4 MB. Now we want to distribute it thru our company website. With each distribution we have to supply JRE so that the user doesnt have to install JRE in his machine manually. Problem is the size of JRE which is around 13 MB. For an application of 4 MB its getting too much for the user to download additional 13 MB of files.
    I need the list of files of JRE minimum needed to distribute the application.
    thanks
    --Ahmed

    You are not allowed to distribute a partial set of the JRE, you can only distribute a complete JRE. See the LICENSE file included with any JRE installation.

  • Using a file backup for a fresh iTunes install?

    Recently the Window 7 system I keep my iTunes music database on died, and won't boot. Fortunately, I have a fresh backup of the system disk on an external drive that was made using the backup software Macrium Reflect. The entire iTunes song database (~100 GB) is also on an iPod Classic.
    Though some music was bought from Apple's store, most was imported from audio CDs. Thus I gather I can't restore the database to a new PC from the iPod, and my database wouldn't be downloadable from Apple.
    My thought was to do a clean install of iTunes on the new Windows 7 system I'll be buying, then bring in the directory area (is this something like \Users\Frank\My Music\iTunes ?) from the backup of the old system. If I do this, will the new install of iTunes recognize these files? Or is there anything I would need to do to make it import them? Or, is there a better/easier way to accomplish what I need to do? Thanks in advance --

    It should just be a question of restoring the entire iTunes folder structure from the backup data set into the <User's Music> folder of your new computer. I would suggest you do this before installing iTunes rather than the other way around.
    If for some reason the library wasn't in a standard layout with all the media inside the iTunes Media folder then things get a bit more complicated as your restored library would be looking for the media on the original absolute file paths. If that turns out to be an issue I can make suggestions for resolving it.

  • File Need for Oracle 10g AS from Oracle 10g Jdeveloper

    Dear All,
    I have completed my application for running on Oracle 10g AS.
    What files and the structure that I should maintenace/ keep
    without having all file and structure like what we have in oracle
    10g J developer on Mywork folder?
    Help me ..please...
    regards
    erie

    Erie,
    if you are deploying to Oracle Application Server 10g (9.0.4) or higher, then you don't need to deploy the ADF runtime libraries because they are already there.
    If you create a deployment profile for the application you want to deploy - e.g. a WAR file or EAR file deployment - then you can select the files you want to deploy. The default settings typically include all teh necessary files.

  • What are the minimum files needed?

    Under Windoz, can I simply copy the JAVA.EXE, the JAR files and the DLLs to a subdir (along with my CLASS file) and run my app? If not, then what would be the minimum required to do so? I'm trying to get away with not running the JRE install.
    If there is a URL that you can simply point me to, that would be great.
    TIA.

    I think I doled out those Duke Dollars too quickly. I put everything in a subdir called C:\AJAVATEST (EXEs, DLLs, JARs, IDLs...) and tried to run and received the following message:
    Failed reading value of registry key:
    Software\JavaSoft\Java Runtime Environment\CurrentVersion
    I'm guessing that the Windows version DOES use the registry. That's disappointing.
    Just so everyone will know (including Sun!), I'm not trying to circumvent the JRE Licensing scheme, I'm trying to test on a remote box that I would rather not run an installation on (semi-production box). The remote box does not have the JRE installed on it.
