Only 1 core and 3gb in win7 ultimate 64

I've seen a few other people with this problem.  I have:
MSI x58 Platiunum
i7 920
6gb G.Skill 10666  I've been running dual boot between Vista32 and 7Ultimate64.  I finally decided to switch from Vista to 7 as my OS of choice and now I see this.
I just updated the bios from 1.1 to 1.5 using Live Update 4.  No change to usable cores or memory.  When I boot into Vista32 all 4 cores/8 threads are available.  Also memory is 3.25 or 3.47gb

As for the number of cores...
Within Windows 7, click the start menu and type in "MSCOFIG" (without quotes) into the search box and press ENTER.
On the Second Tab (of MSConfig) - "Boot", press the "Advanced Options" button.
Have a look if you have the "Number of processors" checkbox ticked.
Uncheck as required.
Save and reboot.
As for the memory issue, strange... please post a screenshot of CPU-Z's "Memory" and "SPD" pages.

    Desktop: Mac Mini dual-core i5 (or quad i7 if you can afford it, it might seem overpowered but it will last you longer. Upgrade to 16GB RAM if you want to future proof that side of the machine. Don't buy from Apple, install it yourself).
    Laptop: MacBook Pro 13' if you don't need portability, or MacBook Air 11' if you do (as RRFS has said).
    A notebook and a laptop are the same thing.

    Content Encoding Error - Firefox 8.0 - Win7 Ultimate 64 Bit
    I'm completely hooked on Firefox, so I only know how to use it, however I was forced to switch to IE, because I have a virus any that only leaves me open these two.
    But in Firefox 8.0 recently updated pages take 4 or 5 times longer to open and when they open is full of errors. Clear the cache only solves by 1 min! lol

    You can get a "Corrupted Content Error" error if there are multiple location redirects send via the HTTP response headers or there are other errors in the response headers.

  • Win7 Ultimate permission to open a network user denied.

    Have 4 machines configured in a wired network. This system (all using win7 ultimate) has been running for nearly three years w/o problem. Several days ago system access was denied (all 4 machines) w/ message "Access denied - you don't have permission...
    Since that initial 'out of the blue' message, two of the machines have returned (on their own!) to normal operation within the network. The other two are still in a 'permission denied' state. All 4 machines receive internet and seem otherwise OK. Have
    tried using wireless connection which was effective on one machine only.
    At a loss to understand cause of this. Would appreciate any suggestions. 

    Hi,
    It's confused about your issue. How did you receive this error message, access file or computer?

  • Satellite M100-165 PSMA1E - Upgrade from XP Pro to Win7 Ultimate problem

    During installation Win7 Ultimate (Eng) with current XP Pro the system shows en error (something like couldn't find a certain file) and the installation stops.
    In the beginning of the installation I delete all the partitions and create new ones.
    At the same time Win7 creates it's own partition with the size of 100MB.
    Using the same disk I installed Win7 on Compaq Presario CQ60 with no problems. Also instead of XP Pro.
    What could be a problem?
    Do I need to download and use any special software from Toshiba?
    Currently I just recovered XP Pro using Acronis Universal restore from an external USB drive.
    I will really appreciate for your help.

    Thanks a lot for your reply guys!
    I've also checked all the possible knowledge bases before posting my message.
    Yes, Win 7 disk is original, it's 32-bit version and, as I already mentioned, I installed it on my HP CQ60 with no problems...
    It's also a pretty old laptop, but i didn't even need to install prepared drivers. Win7 did everything.
    The only difference in my Toshiba now is that i've upgraged 80GB hard drive to SeaGate 320GB. Under XP Pro it works perfectly. But again, it shouldn't be a problem.
    Ok. I've tried to install win7 three times already, but i will follow your advice and will set BIOS to default.
    I will inform you about the results.
    The case is very strange.
    Thanks.

  • What is the difference between Azure RemoteApp Basic vs Standard Plans in terms of compute cores and memory?

    So our customer has asked us to compare compare Amazon Workspace and Azure RemoteApp offerings for them to choose from. While looking at Amazon Workspace, it clealy defines bundles with specific CPU cores, memory and user storage. However, Azure RemoteApp
    only specifies user storage and vaguely compares its basic vs. standard plans in terms of "task worker" vs. "information worker"
    I tried looking up its documentation but couldn't find specific CPU cores that are dedicated per user in basic vs. standard plans. I have following questions:
    Can anyone point me in the right direction or help understand how many CPU cores and memory are dedicated (or shared) per user in each plan?
    Our customer would most likely need a "custom" image for their custom apps. Is it possible for us to choose specific CPU cores and memory for the users to be able to run their apps in azure remoteapp?
    In case i am misunderstanding the basic difference between AWS workspace and Azure RemoteApp, i'd appreciate some help in understanding it as well.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    With Azure RemoteApp users see just the applications themselves, and the applications appear to be running on their local machine similar to other programs.  With Workspaces users connect to a full desktop and launch applications within that.
    1. Azure RemoteApp currently uses size A3 Virtual Machines, which have 4 vCPUs and 7GB RAM.  Under Basic each VM can have a maximum of 16 users using it whereas under Standard each VM is limited to 10 users.  The amount of CPU available
    to a user depends on what the current demands are on the CPU at that moment from other users and system processes that may be on the server.
    For example, say a user is logged on to a VM with 3 other users and the other users are idle (not consuming any CPU).  At that moment the user could use all 4 vCPUs if a program they are running needed to.  If a few moments later
    the other 3 users all needed lots of CPU as well, then the first user would only have approximately 1 vCPU for their use.  The process is dynamic and seeks to give each user their fair share of available CPU when there are multiple users demanding CPU.
    Under the Standard plan a user will receive approximately a minimum of .4 vCPU assuming that the VM has the maximum number of users logged on and that all users are using as much CPU as possible at a given moment.  Under the Basic plan the approximate
    minimum would be .25 vCPU.
    2. You cannot choose the specific number of cores and memory.  What you can do is choose the Azure RemoteApp billing plan, which affects the user density of each VM as described above.  If you need a lower density than Standard you
    may contact support.

  • Satellite A300 (PSAG8E) - Hardware problems after installing win7 ultimate

    Hello and good day,
    I've installed win7 ultimate a few days ago and windows managed to recognize most of my hardware accept my build in mic and camera and another component I am not sure about what it is (Windows update automatically downloaded the sound and graphics driver for me).
    My questions are - where can find the remaining drivers and where can I get the preinstalled Toshiba tools and software? (The driver site in the Toshiba support page does not include those drivers and software)
    Thank you very much
    Roi Ben Simon

    Hi
    I have Satellite A300 (PSAG8E) too and installed Win7 Home premium and everything works perfect.
    At first I must say that I don't know where you have searched drivers and Toshiba tools and utilities because all stuff is downloadable on Toshiba support & download page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com
    It is logic that mic will not work if you didn't installed proper driver. Install drivers alone and not using Microsoft update. What you need are real and tested drivers and not some free drivers from internet.
    Go to Toshiba download page and install all stuff following this installations order:
    -Win7
    -chipset driver
    -storage manager
    -display driver
    -sound driver
    -modem driver
    -supervisor utility
    -infrared
    -patches
    -configfree
    -VAP
    -toshiba hardware setup
    -HDMI control
    -WLAN driver
    Everything works well but missing some drivers
    Added Vista stuff:
    -Toshiba assist - work properly
    -Card reader - installed properly
    -Webcam driver for A500 - tested with Skype - work properly.
    -Synaptics driver

    Hi Jim,
    You're welcome
    Is the version of Windows 7 Ultimate you have installed 32bit or 64bit?
    Open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers - do you see an existing entry for the IDT High Definition Audio CODEC listed here?
    There is an alternative IDT Audio driver you may wish to try on the following link.

  • Photoshop CC 2014 crashes right after start in Win7 Ultimate. amtlib.dll seems to blame.

    Photoshop CC 2014 crashes right after start in Win7 Ultimate. Installed a new graphics card MSI GeForce GT730 and did an immediate driver update. Also completely updated Windows. Bridge and Lightroom 5.5 work fine. After several attempts to get PS up and running, also after checking possible solutions on the web and in this community I was still left with a crashing application.
    Then tried a cracked amtlib.dll in the Photoshop directory and PS worked fine! But not able to check in to CC. Then replaced the cracked amtlib.dll with the original and PS again crashed a few seconds after launch. Oh, and yes, I did check out of Creative Cloud and checked in again but nothing worked so far.

    After browsing through several sites I finally stumbled upon the message below, posted a couple of months ago in this forum.
    This sequence finally was the solution to my problem with Ps crashing after launch.
    PROBLEM SOLVED!!
    After dozens of fruitless attemps to solve the problem and many, many hours of searching the web, I stumbled upon a thread in the PS community that helped me fix the problem and made my day (weekend).
    The thread was originally posted by MrNameloc here and ALL CREDITS got to him. A public "Thank You" to MrNameloc is also in its right place.
    The solution is as follows:
    Un-install Photoshop CC.
    Un-install Adobe CC.
    Go to: C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe and find SLCache and delete it.
    Go to: C:\ProgramData\Adobe and find SLStore and delete it.
    Restart.
    Install Adobe CC.
    Install Photoshop.
    Restart.
    @Adobe, you might wanna write this one behind your ear just in case it shows up again in the forums... 'cose it will.

  • 4 cores or 8 cores and which video card to choose

    My father and I are presented with a dilemma. Should we get 8 core model or the 4 core model at several hundred dollars cheaper?
    I have never actually bought for myself a computer, and I want to make this one last. At the moment, 8 cores is completely top of the line, and assuming I choose such a model, I will probably have an exceptionally well computer that will last be many, many years.
    I am most likely going to at all times be running Windows and Leopard side by side using Parallels and have a game running in Windows and developing, browsing, chatting, watching movies, ventrilo, etc. in the other space.
    For this reason, would it be wise to purchase the 8 core model? It is considerably cheaper to add the extra quad core with Apple as it is nearly half the price of one found on newegg or a dell configuration. I really want this computer to last and use it for a long time and play the most top of the line games with my friends such as Age of Conan, Crysis, etc. Also, I will have a 24 inch monitor that I will also need my computer to power.
    My current computer cannot even run Age of Conan at the lowest quality settings. I figure if I want to be able to run this game at 1920x1200 resolution in Parallels while running applications on Leopard, shelling out the extra three or four hundred dollars would be worth it. Seeing as I will be using this computer for years, even though most applications do not use 8 cores now, they will then.
    I believe that the 4 core model of the Mac Pro does not allow for an additional xeon quad core, so if I did buy the single quad core model, I would not be able to add another quad core, thus limiting me. Also, even if there were, it would void my warranty.
    Also, I have heard of the 8800 GT causing some problems in the Mac Pro, typically in the first generation ones, however, I had seen cases of people noting problems in the January edition. I want to do a lot of gaming in this rig, and the 8800 is the de facto card of choice for most gamers, at a reasonable price. However, will it give me problems? I have heard of some people having 0 problems at all with this card. Will it give me those occasional blue and green lines through my monitor? Has Apple fully developed the drivers for this card? Will I have problems with it?
    Thanks for any help and I await your responses.

    Fromethius,
    you cannot assing CPUs to the VM in Parallels. In VMware you can select 1 or 2 virtual CPU for the guest OS, though that doesn't neccessarily translate 1:1 with your physical CPUs.
    As for games, neither VM nor Parallels with run most later games well; remember, shader support is only experimental right now, so your results will vary.
    I play games on Mac natively, but it depends on which ones you are after.
    The is no problem with the 8800 card. The issues talked about - which is valid - is it's subpar CORE performance. That hopefully will be addressed in a driver, but won't affect you.
    As for the system - get all you can afford. Don't wait for 'upgrades' - you'll never buy s system otherwise as something new is always on the way.
    I work with a lot of video so I have an 8 core 3.2 with 16GB or RAM - and would never want less. Does that mean you need that? Or someone else doesn't even need more? Not at all - you just need to see what you really mean to do. 4 cores and the 8800 should be just fine for you. IF you can afford the 8 core, in case you will do a lot of work at the same time, great. Otherwise, rather not skimp on memory. Anything under 4GB, IMHO, ain't good enough.
    Cheers,
    dan

  • Blue screen while installing Boot Camp support software in Win7 Ultimate x64

    2012 macbook pro with OSX Mavericks. Installing Win7 ultimate x64 using boot camp assistant and a USB drive went flawlessly. Then I downloaded and installed the boot camp support software from support.apple.com/kb/DL1638
    Running setup.exe bluescreens my computer and makes the windows partition unbootable after that, even in safe mode. I performed a system restore to roll back the boot camp software and booted again, and checked the log file. It pointed to an intel USB driver. I then deleted IntelxHCI from the Drivers/Intel folder, ran setup.exe again, and everything installed perfectly.
    My question is: what is the Intel usb 3 extensible host controller, why is it included in the support software, and why does it immediately brick my Windows partition?

    I have re-installed Windows 7 about 20 times already, I am experiencing the same problem as you are. The issue must be some kind of driver being installed by Boot Camp. When I leave my fresh Windows 7 install with no Boot Camp, the error or blue screen never occurs. This is weird.
    Help please Apple...

  • HPE-390t Bluetooth issues on Win7 Ultimate

    I have an HPE-390t that is running Win7 Ultimate (which came with it when I purchased it from HP).  Lately, Bluetooth has been very iffy on the machine and I'm not sure if it's a hardware or software issue and how to resolve it either way.  Sometimes when I start up the Bluetooth icon appears in my system tray, and other times it doesn't and I have a Unknown Device listed under Universal Serial Bus controllers in Device Manager (although it's possible that's listed there even when the Bluetooth icon appears and Bluetooth is working - it's not working right now, so I have no way of knowing if that Unknown Device is there when it is working until it starts working again).  Any help on how to troubleshoot and/or fix this is greatly appreciated.  Thanks.
    Marc

    Is your desktop PC still in warranty? Check your warranty status Here.
    You can troubleshoot it by using the Device Manager to identify the unknown device when it appears. If the unknown device is the bluetooth transceiver then you will have found the cause to be a failing transceiver.

  • SQL 2005 Setup on Win7 Ultimate [No SQL Services after installation]

    Win 7 Ultimate (64bit)
    4GB RAM
    New installation of Win 7 Ultimate
    Re-installation of SQL: Originally SQLExpress which didn't work out so I went to SQL2005 Standard Edition SP1 & updated to SQL2005 SP4.  I installed Visual Studio 2005 during the SP1 installation.  Actually, I installed all SQL2005 components
    'just in case'.
    I had attempted, unsuccessfully, to install SQLExpress so I uninstalled all SQLExpress components via Programs and Features, removed all SQL related directories and subdirectories in c:\Program Files (x86)\SQL.... and started the DVD setup.exe installation. 
    [I didn't do a RegEdit32!] 
    Uniquely, During installation of SQL2005, I wasn't asked for the SQL Product Key nor whether the mode was Windows or Mixed (I want Mixed Mode).  Now, after rebooting with all MS updates (Win7 and SQL2005) I don't see any SQL services even though the
    Microsoft SQL Server 2005, Backward compatibility and Books etc are listed as installed under Programs and Features.  IIRC, I saw a message regarding ASP.Net for 64bit being installed but some issues on the 32bit not being installed (warning message).
    So, how do I get the necessary SQL 2005 services installed and get SQL functional???  I'm open to a complete re-install if necessary.  My original DVD is SQL2005 Standard Edition SP1, fyi.
    THANKS!

    1) SQL Server Configuration Manager?  Yes, I do under "Configuration Tools"  When selecting this and going into SQL Server 2005 Services I get "There are no items to show in this view".
    2) Exact SQL Server edition? From Help of SQL Server Configuration Manager: 2005.090.5000.00
    3) Compact Edition installed?  I used the SQL2005 SP1 Standard Edition DVD and then selected setup.exe.  If you'd like for me to uninstall SQL and reinstall I will (including removing appropriate SQL Server directories).  I'd remove the RegEdit
    entries but I don't know where/what they are.  [[Note!: See #4 below where under Server Type I see "SQL Server Compact Edition  ... as well as Database Engine, Analysis Services, Reporting Services and Integration Services]
    4) ??: Since I can't get into SQL Server Management Studio.  I get "Cannot connect to XYZ02" "A network-related or instance specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL server.  The server was not found or was not accessible. 
    Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections.  (Provider: Named Pipes Provider, error:40- Could not open a connection to SQL server) (Microsoft SQL server, Error:2)"  [Note: XYZ02 is the name
    of the laptop and I used: Server Type: Database Engine; Server Name: XYZ02 (I had to enter as it wasn't listed); Authentication: Windows Authentication
    So, suggestions... looks like I DO have Compact Edition?  Thoughts?????
    Thanks
    BTW, I have another 64bit laptop (same mfr/model but with 8GB vs this 4GB under 64bit Win7 Ultimate) that runs SQL fine.  Been running SQL 2005 on it for 3-4+ years.
