Solaris won't run in VMware 5 on Windows XP Professional

I tried to install Solaris 10 in VMware 5 to see what it was like.
Upon booting from the first x86-x64 CD, I selected the first installation type.
After a couple of seconds it stopped, with a message that said that it needs PAE (Physical Address Extension).
Now, both my current OSes (Windows XP Professional & Mandriva Linux 2005 LE) support PAE, as does my processor (AMD Sempron 2800+), but it isn't enabled.
Does anyone know how to fix this so I run Solaris 10 in VMware 5, or should I just partition my drive and install Solaris 10 directly onto it.
My system is running on a MSI K8MM-V motherboard with the K8M800 chipset, 1GB of TwinMOS PC3200 DDR RAM, an AMD Sempron 2800+ processor, an ATI Radeon X700 graphics card, a 200GB HDD, a LG DVD-Multi Format drive and a 600W Jeantech Arctic power supply.
Please help!!

You need to run the 32-bit kernel:

  • Running Tuxedo 11gR1 on Windows 7 Professional

    Hi,
    I'm having difficulty running Tuxedo 11gR1 on Windows 7 Professional - there appears to be a problem accessing the message catalogues. I ran the following immediately after installing the software:
    C:\TuxModel\trainingcourse>tmadmin -v
    INFO: Oracle Tuxedo, Version 11.1.1.1.0, 32-bit, Patch Level (none)
    C:\TuxModel\trainingcourse>tmadmin -z
    NLS:4: Cannot open message catalog TMADMIN_CAT, set 1, num 182; check TUXDIR=C:\
    tuxedo11gR1, LANG=English_South Africa.1252
    NLS:4: Cannot open message catalog TMADMIN_CAT, set 1, num 1328; check TUXDIR=C:
    \tuxedo11gR1, LANG=English_South Africa.1252
    (the message numbers are the ones expected if an invalid option is specified)
    The tmadmin -v option works ok, so it does not appear to be a TUXDIR issue. Can anyone throw some light on this problem? I installed Tux using the "Run as Administrator" option. (I know Windows 7 Professional is not a supported server platform, but Tux has run on the Windows platforms since the days of 6.4......)
    Any and all suggestions gratefully received!
    Kind regards,
    Malcolm.

    Hi:
    Tuxedo will look for the locale specific catalog, in %TUXDIR%\locale, by the language(i.e. LANG) specified.
    Here are some things to try:
    1) Check that the privlilges on the "C:\tuxedo11gR1\locale\C" are readable by all?
    2) Possibly Windows 7 does not know LANG=English_South Africa.1252 is the same as LANG=C.
    Check what setting you have for LANG (or GC_LANG). Try setting it to "C" or "English_UnitedStates.windows-1252@Default"
    3) Try renaimg the default "C:\tuxedo11gR1\locale\C" directory to "C:\tuxedo11gR1\locale\English_South Africa.1252"

  • Existing piece won't run video files on windows 7 and vista

    hi, folks - I need some help.
    we have a series of older (2003) authorware pieces that use .mpg and .mov files. We run the lessons (exams, actually) at 10 or so sites across the country, twice a year. They've been running fine for 7 years with occasional updates and tinkering. At the sitting last week we had problems with a lab that just converted to Windows 7 and another laptop that runs Vista Business. In both cases the authorware file loads and runs until a screen that tries to load a video file. The placeholder shows up (a square with an x across it indicating its size), but the piece freezes and nothing runs. The piece runs fine on all the other sites and on a variety of pc's at our location.
    In both cases, we are able to load and run the video files directly from the hard drive through Media Players, but they will not load in authorware.
    I've tried recompressing the files into .wmv, mp4, mov, and avi. Still won't run. Tried recompressing on a different machine and still no joy.
    would really appreciate any ideas or help on this.
    thanks,
    Ron

    thanks, Steve and Eric. Replaced it and it's running fine - appreciate the response and advice.
    Regards,
    Ron

  • Image Processor Pro won't run in PS6 using Window 7 OS.

    Trying to run IPP on a Windows 7 OS in PS6.  I select my images in bridge and run the script IPP. Photoshop pops up and a blank white screen appears and nothing else happens.

    Scripting was an extra down for PS7 and the first version of Photoshop to have scripting support PS6 has no scripting support.  The Image Processor Pro script uses newer scripting features like Plug-in support that was added in CS3 and I think Image Processor Pro needs newer then that like it may only works with CS5, CS6 and CC. I use it with CS6 and CC... I do not usr the installer I extract the zxp file and install manually. There are a couple of minor issues the X is working on Alpha Channels in PSD files and some TGA and BMP support... Adobe has pull Russell Brown off of Photoshop  and X is feed up with Adobe.. Make sure you have the latest version of the script... I use Windows 7 Pro OS...
    CS5/CS6 Script:

    Dr. Brown’s Services is a collection of time-saving utilities for designers and photographers. Use the new CS6 Extension Manager to install both the Mac and PC versions.

  • Flash Player Update won't run properly on my Windows Vista / IE 9

    I am having problems with updating the Adobe Flash Player. The player is installed and recognizes that an update is available. I select to download and install the update and an internet explorer window opens and I am given the opportunity to click the "Download Now" button. However once i do the screen changes for a while to a progress bar titled "Step 1 of 3" and "Initializing" which then changes to "Step 2 of 3" that shows "If you encounter any issues downloading Adobe Flash Player, Click here." but never does anything else. When I take advantage of the 'click here' option or the "Need Help?" prompt in the upper right corner I get another screen overlay showing the following. The problem is I am not getting any of the prompts shown below. It is as if the download never started. And no the prompts shown below are not really apearing and just hiding behind another open window on my screen. It seems to me that the update and download functions are broken. The same thing happens if i go directly to the ADOBE site and try to initiate the install or updates directly from there. Can someone help with this?
    1.
    When File Download dialog box appears, click Run.  Security scan will run automatically.
    2.
    When User Account Control dialog box appears, click Yes.
    Note : If you are still unable to download Adobe Flash Player, click the Back button on your browser. Then click Install/Download now and select the option to  Save and Run.

    Hi jwklingon,
    Thanks for confirming the behaviour, much appreciated.  The online installer that you were using (aih in the file name) downloads the Flash Player installer silently in the background and installs it silently.  It appears that, for some reason, the download was not occurring.  The link Andy provided has the offline installers, which are the full installers and don't download anything in the background.  Those should work on your system.  If it doesn't, please provide a screenshot of the error the displays, if any.
    Thank you.

  • Aleks 'higher ed' -- precalcus -- won't run on Firefox for windows; I want to use Firefox, not Chrome or Explorer per the ALEKS recomendation; what should I do

    I tried to join ALECKS. I received a Java warning that Google has not fixed a problem that makes Firefox running on Windows unstable when using a Java version = or > 7.0. I don't want to follow the Alex recommendation to use Chrome or Explorer; using the ALECKS path to install a 6.x version of Java didn't work for me. I want to use Firefox as my only browser. If that is not possible re: ALECKS, I will use the Khan Academy in lieu of ALECKS.

  • I would like to jam it where the sun does not shine. Something as ubiquitous as itunes and it won't run after download to Windows 7 64bit machine.

    Millions of people use this software.  How can these problems exist?
    I am sick of the the compatibility problems and all the other crap.
    I am sick of the software locking up as soon as it starts up - not responding messages,
    I have spent hours - installing, uninstalling, reading all this help - nothing helps!!!
    I AM FRUSTRATED BEYOND BELIEF.  What do I do now.
    I need this software so that I can synch and back up my contacts.
    Perhaps what I really need is a different smart phone.  Any suggestions?
    Can I back up and synch my contacts with my iphone without using itunes?

    You appear to be able to backup your contacts without iTunes.  Google "backup iphone contacts without itunes".
    The way to avoid having to get a tech person in is to get past the idea that your problem (which you still haven't defined) is "beyond my ability to fix".  ;-)

  • AIR 4.0 captive runtime won't run: "requires a version of Adobe AIR" alert

    I'm creating an AIR captive runtime application, and it won't run on a target Windows* machine. It displays the following alert instead:
    This application requires a version of Adobe AIR which cannot be found. Please download the latest version of this runtime from http://www.adobe.com/go/getair, or contact the application author for an updated version.
    How can I package the captive runtime differently so it won't display this message? The application is a pure ActionScript app compiled with the adt binary from the standalone SDK (this is not Flex).
    In addition, I'm disturbed that a captive runtime AIR application pings Adobe in any way. I am seeing occasional pings to an adobe site upon launch of the app (something like airdownload2.adobe.com, if I remember correctly). No I'm not using any service calls in my app at this point in development, it's very simple, and should not be pinging the net at all. Why is this happening? I need to disable this too.
    * Problem occurring only on a particular Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit machine. Unfortunately, this is the end client's machine so I can't tinker with it.

    Do you have access to the problematic machine? If so, maybe you could try to install Sysinternal's Process Monitor http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645
    Run the tool, create filter to see just events containing your app name and try to find in the result any issue... you could also compare the log with same log from not problematic machine or with app made with older SDK which was working.
    That's all what I can do... it's a shame that nobody from Adobe is interested yet... maybe you could also submit a bug.

  • Unable to resolve Error Code 16 for Illustrator CC and Photoshop CC on Windows 7 Professional

    I am running adobe CC on windows 7 professional. Illustrator and Photoshop were both running just fine until about 2 weeks ago. I uninstalled and installed illustrator and photoshop, when that did not work I tried uninstalling and installing Adobe CC - this still did not work. I followed the steps outlined by Adobe on this page: Configuration error 16 | CC, CS. I also tried restoring a backed up version of adobe illustrator. I still have not had any luck resolving the issue. Any solutions?

    We can't know. You have not provided exact system information or details like what the prefs for hardware acceleration look like, what color profiles are used, what peripherals and so on. From simple graphics issues to a flaky driver for a tablet this could be anything.

  • I have a Windows 2003 Server 64-Bit, and when I upgraded to Firefox 4.0.1 now it won't run, it keeps saying to restart to complete the installation, but I've restarted theserver 4 times, and I still can't use it.

    I have a Windows 2003 Server 64-Bit, and when I upgraded to Firefox 4.0.1 now it won't run, it keeps saying to restart the computer to complete the installation, but I've restarted theserver 4 times, and I still can't use it.

    I ended up putting it in DFU mode.  It's kinda hard to tell it was in DFU mode because nothing showed on the screen, it was just black, but the sounds from the computer helped to tell me it was connected.
    Itunes still didn't recognize the device for whatever reason.
    So I used redsn0w.  I don't know if I can say that on these forums, but considering itunes was worthless at this point I am going to give credit where credit is due.
    Now I am giving itunes a second chance to upgrade to 5.1, if it doesn't work, well, back to redsnow and maybe I will even jailbreak it this time rather than just using the fecovery fix found under extras.

    Pagemaker is ancient, obsolete and unsupported. It was discontinued over 10 years ago. (Though why it is still sold is a mystery.)
    If you want to run PageMaker, your best bet is to use a Win2K or WinXP PC.
    Otherwise move to Indesign or look at Serif's PagePlus or Scribus.

  • I installed iTunes on my Windows 7 PC and now Internet Explorer crashes and won't run.

    I installed iTunes on my Dell PC running Windows 7 and now Internet Explorer crashes and won't run. Are there any known conflicts, or likely issues that may be causing this?
    I've rebooted, and the iTunes program seems to operate fine. I used it to upgrade my iPad's OS to 8.1.3.

    They aren't related and shouldn't affect each other.

    Not using Boot Camp, but you should be able to using virtualization software such as Parallels to run Windows concurrently with OS X.

  • Windows 8.1 (running in VMware Fusion 6) keeps resetting my default program associations after rebooting

    I tried to set Google Chrome as my default browser in Windows 8.1 (virtual machine running in VMware Fusion 6) but somehow mysteriously failed over and over again.
    According to Control Panel\Programs\Default Programs\Set Default Programs\Set Program Associations, there are 19 possible associations for Google Chrome:
    Extensions: .htm, .html, .shtml, .webp, .xht, .xhtml;
    Protocols: FTP, HTTP, HTTPS, IRC, MAILTO, MMS, NEWS, NNTP, SMS, SMS, SMSTO, TEL, URN, WEBCAL
    I have no problem selecting some of them, or "set this program as default" so that "this program has all its defaults." (I am the only admin user, but not the builtin admin account.)
    However, after restarting the VM, the program associations for Google Chrome will reset on its own. Specifically,
    "this program has all its defaults" becomes "this program has 14 out of 19 defaults", losing the following five crucial protocols:
    FTP, HTTP, HTTPS, MAILTO, NEWS
    And these protocols simply hang there unassociated—they don't belong to IE either.
    So I am extremely confused; how could the system reset my default program associations? What's wrong?
    In case it is relevant, I will also post my VMware Fusion VM Default Applications settings here. All of the options are unchecked: "Open your Mac files and links using Windows applications"; "Open your Windows files and links using Mac applications";
    "Run Windows applications from your Mac's Applications folder."
    Thank you for your time.

    Hi,
    I have the same issue, and I've posted on the vmware forums with no responses other than another person having the same issue.
    Have you been able to fix this? I tried importing the same VM into Parallels and the problem goes away. If I do a manual uninstall of Fusion (and remove VMWare tools from the VM), and then reinstall both, the problem goes away - temporarily. I had a few
    good months, and it started again. Followed the procedure mentioned, and it went away again, but only survived a few reboots.
    FYI, it's definitely not an issue with Chrome, as I'm having the same issue with Firefox (although I can duplicate on chrome as well).
    Have you figured anything out?
    Thanks!
