These are Apple's spec sheets for the two 13" MBP generations that had been released by the end of 2010. The table near the bottom of each sheet clearly says the machine supports up to 8GB of RAM.

NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT driver for Vista x64

Hello,
I have an issue with my new MacBook Pro 2.4Ghz 17" that was released on the 5th of June, 2007.
It has NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT installed on it and I simply cannot find Vista 64 bit drivers for it.
I have tried the latest beta Vista x64 drivers (163.11) downloaded from nVidia's official website. I have tried several previous versions including 100.97 one, which contains drivers for 8600M GT model. But they don't work with me. All the driver installation programs allert the following error and quit:
'The NVIDIA Setup program could not locate any drivers that are compatible with your current hardware. Setup will now exit'.
I also tried Vista 32-bit drivers for 8600M GT. The driver installation program claims the operation system is wrong and quits.
Anybody has the same issue?
Does a working driver of nVidia GeForce 8600M GT for Vista x64 exist at all?
MacBook Pro 2.4Ghz Windows Vista nVidia GeForce 8600M GT

There was one Apple's presentstion where they boot into Windows Vista. So if you claim you can do it why do you forget about Vista x64 customers? I reckon it is because of Leopard that is coming. But it's not an excuse.
I'm currently working in Vista x64 and everything is fine except one thing, I cannot find a working graphics card driver and it is manufacturer's responsibility to provide it. Apple knew there going to be customers who will install Vista x64 on their computers and they at Apple didn't care about it because I guess it's a lame war between you know who.
So why you don't make everything perfect to attract even more Windows customers but instead you hint that you don't care about Vista x64 as you are getting your own 64-bit OS soon. So now they are forcing me to wait having been announced that I can use Vista. But isn't that kind of lame that it's slightly tardy? Why I should wait for Leopard launch if I was insured that Windows will work on my Macbook Pro? Because Apple claim you can run Windows. And don't say it's not official. Who else if not Apple made it possible to run Windows on Mac.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to insult you. I'm just angry that I cannot find a working driver.

4 gb or 8 gb for vista x64

Should I stay with 4 gb or shall I go for 8 gb in a vista x64 OS

you have vistaa 64, so window will see all 8 gb . it is a question of what you are using your pc, the more RAM the shorter it take for most task to be done sometimes you will notice the difference sometimes you wont simply because it is too short . you can always sell them on ebay if you do not need them so if you can afford them and enjoy comfort then why not

Tecra M7 - Where can I get drivers for Vista x64 or Windows 7 x64?

Hello,
I have a nice M7 tablet and I have to admit that despite all the problems on the hardware I like the notebook however toshiba is quite sad, and they never released any 64bit drivers for windows vista or windows 7 so what am I supposed to do? toshiba does not provide support for this computer seriously.
like toshiba is really absurt, last year I contacted them about a problem with my digitizer, dust was getting in between the plasstic and the LCD through the latch on top and they told me that they will format my computer and all viruses will be gone??? I was like, I dont want a format, physical dust is getting in my screen....
just because it is a discontinued model doesnt mean they can stop providing driver updates for the system.
It is a 64bit cpu, it supports 4 GB of ram, it is a tablet pc yes the hardware is probably 4 years old or more but still it is the best tablet I have ever used, I paid 2000+ USD (Tecra models are business models or they used to be) and toshiba is not providing drivers..........
Dont tell me to install 32bit win7 or vista, that makes no sense, I have 4 GB of ram, I have a 64bit cpu but a 32bit os that is totally bs too
Anyone know where I can find drivers, when I call tech support they tell me to ....

Hi
First of all I agree with you that Tecra notebooks are expensive and are business notebooks but you shouldnt forget that on 32bit OS the most applications are running properly and some older applications they are necessary in business sometimes not running properly on 64bit OS.
So I think for business 32bit OS is fast enough because you use 3.2 GB RAM that you should be enough if you dont play new 3D games.
Of course it would be nice to have 64bit drivers but you can collect http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/ it yourself. The most Vista drivers are also work on Windows 7 so you should look for Vista drivers.
Here are some examples where you can search:

[www.realtek.com]

Good luck!

Time fix for Vista x64 via boot camp...

Can someone tell me what specific drivers I need to load from the Leopard DVD to correct the constant changing of my the time on my Mac when I boot into Windows?
Vista x64.
Tried the registry changes, but they only seem to help temporarily as the time will get messed up later on (even when I have Internet time disabled).
Really frustrating problem as I have date/time stamp issues with development software I use (Visual Studio 2008).
Typically my PC will show 8 hours ahead. (I'm in Pacific Time zone).
Thanks, Rob.

Client trust for vista x64

Hi,
Does anyone know when client trust for x64 will be available. Our proxy
server is not generating any log info, which our management requires, but we
only have 64bit clients.
thanks in advance,
Marco

Craig,
I'll try to put some pressure on them, as I need to extend my upgrade
protection contract.
I requested it also on behalf of several customers on the novell site
(enhancement request)
Where is bm39sp2 actually?
regards,
Marco

Install Error for Vista x64

Ever since the release of 7.5, I've been unable to update iTunes. As a result, I've been blissfully enjoying 7.4 for a while now. However, I bought an iPhone yesterday and must deal with my inability to install 7.7. In my attempts to install (both .exe and .msi files individually), I get the following error:
"The Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. This can occur if you are running Windows in safe mode, or if the Windows Installer is not correctly installed. Contact your support personnel for assistance."
A quick search for this error on Google and the Apple support forums leads me to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315346 but it unfortunately only applies to XP/ Server 2003. I figured I should target iTunes as the problem and not Vista, as I have no trouble installing anything else at all.
I'm going crazy in frustration. I've tried everything from quiet installs to editing the .msi files through Orca. Any thoughts?

I wanna ask is it my display or something else. Im using 1366x768.
Yes it is. The system requirements are there for a reason, not just for fun. These apps all have tons of palettes and require extra space for displaying timelines, compositions and video previews and even if they could be installed with such a small screen res, working with them would be no fun at all because things would get cut off or you would be forced to shuffle palettes around all the time. You really need a qualified computer.

X-Fi Xtreme Gamer Fatality Pro Vista x64 Drivers Unavailabl

Vista x64, CMSS, and Distortion Problems with Audigy Z

I have an Audigy ZS 2 Plantinum, and I recently upgraded from XP x86 to Vista x64. With XP, I had no problems with the most recent drivers. I used CMSS-3D to output to all my speakers, mainly to make my music sound better when I played it (so it surrounded me, not just in front, even though its just Stereo).
Well, after trying to install the drivers for Vista x64 and having a ton of difficulties getting it to even set to 5. speakers, whenever I have CMSS turned on, sounds within programs are scratchy/distorted (such as Aol Instant Messenger). Music is fine (I use MediaMonkey), and those sound .wav's from programs play fine when opened on their own in MM or WMP. When I turn CMSS off, there is no distortion.
Does anyone have a solution for this I would like to have music played through all my speakers, but I am always using other programs when listening to music and I don't want their sounds to be distorted.

If anyone else is having similar problems: For me it seems to be an incompatibility between Creative Audigy 2 ZS drivers and Philips amBX set drivers. I've started a thread on the amBX forums : http://ambx.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=3797
I still need help to fix these problems.

Vista x64 and Beamer (VGA)

Hi,
i tried to connect a Beamer over my "MiniDisplay Port -to- VGA" Cable but i only get a resolution of 640x480 ... i need 1024x768 ... can't change the res in the nivida nor the vista control planel..
..under macOS i have all resolutions aviable..
Are there any new nvidia drivers for vista x64 ... for the macbook's (late 2008) 9400M?

Sometimes there seems to be problems with upgrading firmware on 64bit Operation systems, I had the same problem with both my Logitech G5 and Razer Deathadder mouses. So my tip is you try upgrading it on Vista 32bit or Windows XP 32bit.

Vista x64 and ASIO support - X-Fi titanium

Can anyone else verify that ASIO support for the X-Fi Titanium Fatalty card is not currently available for Vista x64? This appears to be the case, contrary to what the product marketing literature suggests.
Thanks.

Is there a walkaround for the Titanium, maybe with a older driver?
There are several walkarounds for XFI. I tried one with my driverpackage, but it didn't work.
No Singature here.

P965 Platinum and Vista x64 RAID config?

Ok, I have looked all over this forum for Vista x64 issues. Nothing even comes close to my problem. When I load Windows Vista Ultimate x64 Edition onto a clean SATAII drive (single non-RAID drive) I have no problems what-so-ever.
Now here is when it really gets weird. When I run install on a RAID array (2 SATAII Seagate 160GB drives) I see issues in the install. First thing I see is it corrupts the data on the first drive. This causes a blue screen at restart. When I go into the RAID config (ctrl+I) I see the first drive has errors. The only thing I can do is delete the RAID and start over.
When I reinstall Win XP Pro X64 I have no problems at all. I have downloaded the latest drivers from the downloads section and I have tried the newer Intel drivers. Non work!
Computer info:
CPU: Intel 3.4GHz Pentium D x64
MB: MSI P965 Platinum
Storage: 2x Seagate 160GB SATAII
RAID: Intel ICH7R/ICH8R SATA RAID driver 2006-08-29 (and have tried the newer driver from Intel)
If you need more just ask!
Oh yeah, I looked at the specs sheet for the P965. They need to remove the NEC 3550 from the "OK" list since it does not Wright period or READ at install. I went through a big deal with MSI about this and they still have not removed it.

Well sh**! I borrowed a friends Vista x86 and found it to also have the same issue. Would not even load the "Choose Drive" screen or allow me to even install the RAID drivers.
Man when a board gets Vista approved is must not take much. I have had compatibility issues with this board since day one. I think maybe it is time to through it away. What a shame since it is only a few months old.

700p (Verizon) and Vista x64

I just bought me a new laptop that has Vista x64 on it. I've tried to sync via Bluetooth (which is the only option for Vista x64) and I get the following error message:
"Unable to initiate HotSync operation because the port is in use by another application."
Anyone have any suggestions?
Post relates to: Treo 700p (Verizon)

I got my WiFi hotsync to work fine on my Vista 64 system. The latest Palm Desktop versions did not work for me, only the original set up disk worked. Make sure all previous versions of Palm Desktop that you may have tried to install are uninstalled first and to be safe, reboot after the uninstall. Go to help and support in your start menu. Type "compatibility wizard in the search pane. Start the wizard. Follow the directions and select the Start with XP service pack option. Also choose the start with cd option. Insert the original Tungsten C installation disk. You may have to fool around with the various screens that come up next, but the bottom line is, install the original program from your installation disk under the run with XP option. You will then be able to hotsync with Wifi after you set up the wifi on your palm with the correct computer name and ip address. (VPN is not necessary.). I have not yet tried the USB as it is still set up on a backup computer with XP, but I suspect thet it will work. You may have to reboot before the hot sync after installation. Also you will note an icon in the taskbar that shows that there is a program that was blocked from startup by Vista. You have to click on the icon and open the blocked program which is Palm Desktop before each hotsync. (It opens the hotsync icon on the taskbar and then allows the options menu in the palm desktop program to work). Also you will probably have to open the hotsync icon on the taskbar and configure the setup before first hotsync.

State of Vista x64 Driv

I'm getting a new motherboard tomorrow so I'll need to reinstall Windows. ive been using Vista 32 off and on since Feb 07, and after SP and the March 08 Creative drivers it's been good enough for my needs that I haven't needed to boot XP. There are still warts, but no showstoppers for my needs.
If I'm going to reinstall I'd like to go x64. ive got 4GB RAM, and I'd like to be able to use it. I really don't need it since all my programs that matter (games mostly) are still 32 bit. It's mostly because I can and I don't really want to reinstall again soon should a 64 bit capable game I want comes out in the near future. I have no 6 bit stuff that matters, so thats not an issue.
Most of my games use OpenAL, otherwise I'd just use the motherboard sound. I play the Battlefield games, WoW, GRAW, UT, All the Half-Life games, Quake series... you get the idea.
My Question is pretty simple, albeit subjective. How are the Creative drivers for Vista x64. It's an Intel P35 chipset, GeForce 9600GT video, and X-Fi Gamer. Any specific gotchas on the new Beta drivers I understand Cmss3d is an issue, but if thats really the only thing I can probably deal with that for a while assuming it'll be fixed (leap of faith there).
Kind of a vague question, and definately subjective. I'm just fishing for experiences before I reformat. Bonus cookie for anyone running dual-boot x86 and x64 on the same computer with a story.

vista x64 drivers are far and ahead of 32bit drivers as they have to be signed and they are alot more controlled.
That's just BS. Just because they have to be signed doesn't make them any better.

I've found as long as all your hardware is recent then theres no issue with x64 os's its when u want weird stuff that you will get problems. the creative drivers are stable

nVIDIA drivers are quite stable on x64 i've found and usually the few bugs i've encountered have now all been fixed with the latest release. i never noticed bluescreens in x64 so i can't comment on the nVIDIA drivers causing them.
l often get bluescreens in DX0 games.

Audio Console for Vista

Any idea how to make the Audio Console available for Vista X64?
and how do i enable 5. in X64?

What problems do you have with Audio Console? If it displays an error message and closes, then the drivers did not install properly. Try installing the latest XP drivers first and then the beta ones over them, it has worked for some of us.
The multichannel part is broken for almost everyone, you can only get 5./7. in the playback device's test and sometimes in a DVD but upmixing generally does not work.
