Problem ordering 64 bit Windows 7

I recently bought an HP dv6 with Vista Home Premium 64-bit and am eligible for the upgrade to Windows 7. However, when I go to the ordering page I am unable to change the "Existing Vista Windows OS Installed" to 64-bit. The option is frozen on 32-bit. What is wrong?
P.S. I bought the PC from Pakistan and am directed to the Singapore HP website when ordering.

Oracle10G OLE DB Provider Problem in 64 Bit WINDOWS XP

Hello all,
i am facing a problem in installing oracle 10G Client in a 64 bit Xp Windows Machine. There is no Oracle Provider installed along with the 10 G installation.
Is there a way to install OLE Provider for 10G separately or along with the 10G Client Installation?
Kindly share your views.
Thanx

I think you mean db_java cause this is the project which is building the missing DLL libdb_java46.dll
cause dbxml_java is building libdbxml_java24.dll. I thought the latter would have a dependency on the former and hence build both. So I recommended to build the latter lest your next question be how to do just that. But that backfired :-)
Question of mine: Why doesn't dbxml_java depend on db_java?
But anyway I have tried to build both projects seperatly and in both cases I am getting an error like:
Error 4 fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file 'libdbxml24.lib' db_java
Do the equivalent of the following on your system:
dir C:\MILU\Quelltext\dbxml-2.4.16 /s /b /a-d | findstr /e .libThat searches the source tree for LIB files, so-called import libraries; I don't know more about it, but you can use Google to find out what they are.
Did you build the DEBUG version or the straight one? Or a little bit of both?
Can't remember if I had to configure the project any further than adding jni.h to the build path.
Maybe try cleaning and rebuilding.
Also, when receiving an error message, it is good standard practice to perform a simple web search of the relevant portions to find out about the issue - and be it only for practicing.

UMW 190 Dormancy Problems (Vista (64-bit) & Windows 7 (64-bit))

I have windows vista-64 bit my UMW 190 modem keeps going dormant. I had a tech walk me through some trouble shooting, he never called me back. I still have the same problem, it uses time each time I connect but freezes up, won't full load my pages. I recently tried it out on a windows 7 machine and I'm still having the same problem.
I have tried the following options: step by step.
Updating software including firmware etc...
Re-activating device
UN-installing software VZAccess Manager
Re-installing software VZAccess Manager
Re-activating device
Updating of software including firmware etc...
Can anybody give me some more suggestions, or is replacement the only option left ?

Hello, not exacly new here, just a new account (I didn't feel like trying to figure out the password of my old acct. and which email it used).
I have been looking into this subject for the past month and, being a total geek, think it might be fun installing 8 gigs of RAM on my system.
I know it's overkill, but why not...
edited my question out because i found out the answer and now feel like an idiot.
PS. 8 gigs is overkill, unless you are planning on turning your laptop into a server (which would make you an idiot).

Cr8.5 on 64 bit windows 7 exporting issues

Hello,
We are using cr8.5 on windows 7, both 64 and 32 bit. Both are able to display reports just fine. The problem comes with exporting, specifically excel exports. 32 bit is fine, but 64 bit is iffy at best. Some reports it works, some it doesn't. Anybody ever have export problems on 64 bit windows 7 that they were able to solve?
thanks,
Dan

Hi Dan,
Congratulations on getting the reports to mostly work on 64 Bit Windows 7. The general answer you will get at this time is 8.5 is not supported on Windows 7.
Not the answer you were expecting but only XI R2 and higher are supported.
Sorry,
Brian

I have a problem with the synchronisation of my iPhone and iPad with Outlook 2007 on my 64-bit Windows 7 PC. For several years,
I have had no problems with the synchronisation by cord connection and iTunes between these programmes. However, a few months ago I decided to use Mobile Me. However, there were problems with duplication of calendars and then “rogue events” – which could not be deleted – even if deleted on Outlook and on the iPhone (or both at the same time) – they would just reappear after the next synchronisation. All other synchronisation areas (eg Contacts, Notes etc) work fine.
I have looked for help through the Apple Support Community and tried many things. I have repaired my Outlook. I have repaired my .pst file in Windows. I have re-installed the latest version of iTunes on my PC. I have re-installed the firmware on my iPhone. I have tried many permutations on my iPhone. I have closed down all Mobile Me functions on the iPhone. I have spent upwards of 24 hours trying to solve this problem.
What am I left with? Outlook works seamlessly on my PC. My iPhone calendar now has no events from my calendar, but does not synchronise through iTunes. Nor does it send events initiated on the iPhone to the Outlook. I am at the point of abandoning iPhones and iPads altogether. I need to have a properly synchronising calendar on my phone. Do you have any suggestions?

In the control panel goto the "Lenovo - Power Manager" and click the battery tab, there is a maintenance button in there that will let you change the charging profile for your battery. (from memory, so exact wording may be off)
The lower the numbers you use there, the longer the battery *should* last. These batteries degrade faster at higher charge levels, however storing them at too low of levels is also not good for them... I've read that 40% is optimal, but just not realistic if you use your computer.

I have the lastest (10.7) I tunes software running on a 64 bit windows 7 system. Today it stopped running all of the tv shows I have downloaded. The error message says that a "problem has stopped i tunes from working and windows is shutting it down" ?

i have the latest (10.7) itunes installed on a 64 bit Windows 7 based system. Up unitil today I had NO problem running the TV shows that I have downloaded from I Tunes.
Today it stopped running all videos. It loads the information in the top box about length & name. An error message pops saying "an error has caused I tunes to stop working". "Windows will check for a solution and notify if therer is a solution."
Music plays fine so i know that something works on itunes.
Any ideas?

User Account Control Problems with Premier Elements 7 32 bit in 64 Bit Windows 7

I found User Account Control Problems in other forums but didn't see much in Premiere Elements, so I hope this helps others who may be having problems with 32 bit programs in a 64 bit computor. When I first got my 64 bit I didn't have problems.
Back in February I bought a Quad Core Desktop with Windows 7 64 bit. Haven't been on the forum for 7 months since I wrote in regarding importing video with the Pyro AV Link (Premiere Elements Tips and Tricks). I was having problems importing video which started after March 28 sometime, as that was the last time I didn't have a problem importing VHS. Took me a few months off and on to find out what worked.
I started uninstalling Windows updates and any programs I had installed back to that point in time. Checked after uninstalling each item. The capture screen would come up on a delayed basis but clicking on capture did nothing. Although no driver is required for IE1394 (so they say) I read where some people using the Legacy driver had fixed some problems, so I switched to the Legacy. Seemed to work great (for a few minutes).
I had even uninstalled and reinstalled PE7 but no difference. Finally I noticed a shield in the PE7 Desktop icon. Thats weird. Never had that before. Just decided to show up after I had done all of the stuff I mentioned. Turns out at some point in time since I've had the computor Windows 7 decided to flag my 32 bit program as misusing the 64 bit system. User Account Control. I never bothered too much with UAC and just clicked on the yes box wen it popped up asking if I wanted this or that to take control of my computor. I tried using the minimum setting for safety reasons, and then finally turned User Account Control off. Bingo! PE7 capture works again and still working.
While I am not recommending that people arbitrarily turn UAC off, this appeared to be my problem. I would recommed that they try turning it off before uninstallin a bunch of stuff. Having a restore point may or may not have been a fix for me. I think one of the Windows Updates caused the problem but I am not going to uninstall any more stuff at this point, I have not been back on the internet or installed any more updates in my desktop. I am going to use my laptop for internet and used the desktop for video.
I am guessing this could be a problem for any 64 bit systems trying to use 32 bit programs. IE: XP,Vista,Windows 7 64 bit. In Vista there is also Data Execution Prevention (DEP) which you can turn on or off, supposedly to prevent misuse of memory (as I understand it), but Win7 either doesn't have it or I haven't found where it's located.
Maybe this has been covered in the forum somewhere and I missed reading it. Hope I am not too confusing. Anyway, whatever feedback you guys have would be great.

John,
    Thanks for your answer, and I did check out the link you suggested. However, I have Windows 7 Home Premium as most people have I think, and the XP program was not available. I started with Vista and now have Win 7. I never could navigate around in XP anyway so am content to just leave User Account Control off.
    Interesting side note to turning UAC off is that my desktop seemed to be using more of the CPUs, where half of them were "Parked" as I wrote in also about 7 months ago when I 1st got my desktop. I am pleased to say that video processing seems to go quicker with UAC off. Have to observe things some more to confirm.
    I just thought if others were having problems after installing Windows Updates and leaving UAC off worked then they could possibly pinpoint a problem.

64-Bit Windows 7 Load Driver Installation Problem

I am new to Mac and have recently got my hands on a new 17" MBP.
The MBP is a 2011 model dating from about May.
Not wanting to step 100% away from Windows I want to install Windows 7 as well and run Mac OS.
I have tried installing Windows 7 32-Bit and it worked absolutely fine - no problems at all.
However, when I tried to install 64-Bit Windows 7 I ran into a problem very early on in the installation.
Before the part where you select the partition to install Windows on, I get a "Load Driver" message which reads:
"A required CD/DVD drive device driver is missing. If you have a floppy disk, CD, DVD, or USB flash drive, please insert it now."
I cannot eject the DVD to replace it with the Windows Support DVD that I burned (which I assume has the relevant drivers on), so I am a bit stuck.
I tried googling and a few people suggested burning the disk at a slower speed, which I did and it made no difference at all.
The fact that 32-Bit works lets me know I am doing things right, there must be something about the 64-Bit that the MBP doesn't like.
Any help much appreciated. I have 8GB RAM and would like to use it all with both Mac OS AND Windows so 64-Bit is preferred.
Thanks in advance.

Hi guys,
I have exactly the same problem.
I have a macbook pro 15 late 2011 and I tried for hours to find a driver for superdrive but nothing at the moment...
If someone could help us it would be great
Thanks

Try downloading the trial. It ought to detect that you have a 64-bit system.
You aren't using Vista, are you? PSE 13 requires at least win 7 and I think a few folks with vista have gotten a similar error message on trying to install it.

Did you download and install the Windows Support software? First step in Bootcamp Assistant is to download the support software. Then did you install the support software from within Windows?

Elements 10 & 64 bit Windows 7 problem

I installed Elements 10 on both my computers (desktop & laptop – both are 64 bit Windows 7). Yesterday, I turned the desktop on and got a message that there was a problem with starting windows, to run the repair might remove recently installed software, I clicked to do the repair (what else could I do), it took a long time, restarted when it was done and now Photoshop Elements is no longer on the computer.

Worth a try. Thanks

I have 64 bit windows 7 and CS4 Production Premium. I have a problem with Premiere Pro CS4, it keeps freezing and Crashing. A simple thing like leaving the project idle for about 15 minutes, you come back and find that it has frozen. Also if you drag out a clip on the timeline you will find that the whole application freezes. Any possible solutions would be much appreciated.

Problems Installing JDK 7u2 Windows 64-bit

I've downloaded the Development Kit but for some reason it won't install. I try clicking on it and nothing...
Help please.

The problem of installation of JDK 7u2 on Windows x64 is coming for both 32 bit and 64 bit versions of JDK.... However, i have tried installing them on Windows x86 (specifically Win XP SP3 x86 on VirtualBox 4.1.8) and the 32 bit version of JDK seems to be installing just fine on 32 bit Windows.
I might be wrong here but maybe the problem is that the 32 bit code on the JDK 7u2 may contain some 16bit code and so the Windows x64 is not able to run it (x64 OS not backwards compatible with 16 bit code). However the chances of this is slim since this is an update and the JDK 7u1 both 32 and 64 bit versions were fine.
However if this might have happened, then it is also possible that the 16bit code is also present in the 64 bit version of JDK 7u2 and thats why both the versions are not running on Windows x64.
Hoping they fix the issue soon. I need to do some testing and programming on Java 7.

Possible to run a 32 bit program in 64 bit Windows 7 Pro?

Hi
I've ordered a Thinkpad X220 which here in UK only comes with 64 bit version of windows 7 pro. Problem is that there a couple of programs which i use which only run in 32 bit windows (no 64 bit version available) and they run fine in my existing Win 7 32 bit version...i've tried them on a friend's pc running 64 bit Win 7 Ultimate and they do not work. Is there any way to make these programs work in Win 7 Pro 64 bit on my soon-to-arrive X220? If i downloaded and installed 'Windows XP Mode with Virtual PC" on my X220, would this help in making the 32 bit programs work on my 64 bit Win 7?
Cheers

Phychopomp1,
Windows 7 64 bit is able to run 32 bit programs. However, some programs will have issues.
Have you checked your programs against the Windows 7 compatibility list: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=2394
This should tell you if they are compatible or not with Windows 7 64-bit.
There are compatibility settings that you can try once you have installed the software also. Right click on the shortcut and choose properties, then go to the compatibility tab and try the various OS settings.
If those things fail, then you should try Windows XP Mode (convenience link: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/download.aspx). This will allow you to install your programs in a virtual copy of Windows XP SP3 using Windows Virtual PC. Once XP Mode is installed, when you install your software into it, you will get a shortcut to use the program from your Windows 7 start menu without even seeing the XP Mode window.
Hope this helps,
