T400 w/ XP Pro SP2

I just ordered and received a T400 (2764CTO) with XP Pro SP2 installed (Vista Business w/XP Pro downgrade). Is there some reason why Lenovo has not upgraded to SP3? Are there issues with upgrading to SP3? Thanks.

Hello,
I installed Windows XP (SP2) on my T400, and updated it to SP3. No issues at all.

No wireless access with Windows XP Pro (SP2) on Macbook Pro

Hello,
Just installed Windows XP Pro (SP2) on my new Macbook Pro using Bootcamp Beta. The installation has gone fine with the exception of wireless access to the internet through my Airport home network.
I've tried all the other configuraton wizards on XP...no joy.
The three other macs in the house (2 wireless, 1 ethernet) and one Windows laptop (wireless) are all fine and dandy.
Any suggestions on what to do?
Thanks

Right Click on My Computer
Select Manage
Click on Device Manager
Make sure that your Ethernet Adapters are working properly
If there is an red X or a yellow ! next to any ethernet adapter then try to reinstall the drivers.
(you can reinstall the drivers via the installation cd or double click on the hardware device under device manager. there should be a reinstall drivers button in there. point it to the CD that you burned from bootcamp)
(there will be a couple of devices that are not working properly.)

Installation of Patch Set 9.2.0.7 on Windows XP Pro SP2 fails

When I tried to apply patch set 9.2.0.7 to my 9.2.0.5 installation on a computer with MS Windows XP Pro SP2, shortly after the selection of the target Oracle home directory the installer told me to shut down a large number of Windows processes (like RAS, RPC, etc., about 30 in total) that are not related at all to the installation.
Am I getting anything wrong? Or is this a bug (as I would suspect)?

You are facing an annoying problem with Oracle installation on Windows.
It seems, some files are locked by
other processes than the Installer process.
The following workaround worked (for me):
Temporarily remove the reference to the Oracle Home at system startup
1. Rename the Oracle Home \bin directory to \bin_save
2. Reboot the system
3. Rename the bin_save directory back to bin again
4. Start patch installation again

Windows XP Pro SP2 cd-rom after downgrading from Vista

Hi everybody.
I successfully downgraded my T61p from Vista to XP Pro SP2 using the downgrade cd-roms send by Lenovo.
Everything seems to work well. I downloaded all drivers. No problem.
But I recently installed a rather old software that I frequently used on my old A31p. This software (a Microsoft program !) has automatically modified some files from XP Pro without any autorization.
Once it was done, I was asked by the system to insert the original Windows XP Pro SP2 cd-rom to repair this modification.
Of course, the (Vista to XP) downgrade cd-rom set was not recognized by the Thinkpad as the original XP set.
An original cd-rom which I finally don't have !
I tried with an original XP Pro SP2 cd-rom bought a few years ago for my A31p. Unsuccessful.
Where could I find the XP Pro SP2 cd-rom corresponding to the downgraded system ?
Thanks for your help and suggestions.
Regards.

James,
thanks for your answer.
But I wrote on my first post "I tried with an original XP Pro SP2 cd-rom bought a few years ago for my A31p. Unsuccessful."
Thus, I don't see any difference between an original Microsoft Windows XP2 Pro SP2 version cd-rom and one created by burning a downloaded version of the OS. An original was not recognized, what would a copy do ?
If possible, it might be probably better to create an XP Pro SP2 cd-rom from the "Rescue and Recovery" files which were reinstalled when downgrading from Vista to XP. (I hate the word "downgrade" : while I was doing it, I had the feeling I was upgrading my Thinkpad !)
I have been using for several years (and still use) an A31p (Since 2002, 8 to 10 hours a day) and a T42p. IMHO, the T61p is the same category of "great" notebooks. Thinkpads are really the best notebooks I have ever used. I noted no significant difference between IBM and Lenovo Thinkpads.

10gR2 on Windows XP Pro SP2

Can anybody help: I just installed Oracle 10g Release 2 on Windows XP Pro SP2 and receive the following message when starting the Enterprise Manager: DBD Error: OCIServer Attach. Via SQLPlus I can work and the Instance is running.
I would appreciate any help or advice!
Thanks!

Hi Fred
Can you provide any more details on the error. Maybe a screen dump of when you run emctl start or emctl status?

Only seeing 2 GB memory (Windows XP Pro SP2, 32 bit)

I have 4 GB installed on my Mac Pro (early 2008). It's running Windows XP Pro SP2, 32 bit). The System Information says I only have 1.99 GB of RAM.
I understand that 32-bit Windows can only see up to 3 GB of RAM. But I'm only seeing 2 GB. (For example, I have a MacBook Pro running 32-bit XP and it sees 3 GB).
In Mac OS X, I see all 4 GB, so the RAM is probably seated properly and fully functional.
Any help? I saw another thread about the same problem, but that was Vista.
thanks

Hello Hatter,
Long time no chat
Do you have any info. on how Windows 7 will behave in the Mac Pro scenario?
My MacPro has 12 GB RAM crammed into it, I'm running XP-Pro 32 bt SP3 - and I too see only 1.99GB RAM in my XP environment. I have no troubles at all seeing all 12GBs in Leopard 10.5.6. I gave up on VMware Fusion after realizing it completely ignored my QuadroFX4500 graphics card.
Now I'm running in pure BootCamp for any/all of my XP needs - which is only to run SolidWorks on my Mac. (SW's tech supp doesn't like me very much - I think they've flagged my account as "one of those Mac freaks" - I digress...)
I'm hopeful Windows7 64bit will be fine and thus will allow SW to see more of the RAM my beast contains within.
Thanks in advance for any thoughts you care to share.
Peace,

I want to install XP Pro SP2 on a Mac Mini from a 2003 RIS server.

I want to install XP Pro SP2 on a Mac Mini from a 2003 RIS server. Is this possiIble? How is it done?
The mac has 10.5 which has bootcamp to enable Windows install. I have created a partition but the bootcamp utility asks for a CD. I want to install a RIS build. The Mac has a option for network boot but this seems to only work with Mac Server. I assume the network adapter is not PXE compatible and so a boot disk of some kind will be needed to kick this off?.

Hallo, I installed the program as you said. Everything ok.
When i have to give my serialnummer, it is not accepted. Code is not valid he said

IPod, iTunes, and Windows XP Pro SP2

I recently upgraded my computer from running Windows XP Pro (no service packs installed) to running Windows XP Pro SP1a, and now SP2.
While running SP1a, I connected my iPod (5th Generation video, 30GB model) to my computer, but it didn't appear in My Computer, nor iTunes. It was recognized by Windows, as noted by the "Safely Remove Hardware" option, as well as my normal "
"HI-SPEED in non-HI-SPEED" warning (my computer is running USB 1.1). I've also tried all four ports, and all four gave me the same response.
I tried connecting it again once I installed SP2, and again, same problems arose. I began trying to troubleshoot it by doing the Right Click on My Computer -> Manage -> Start/Stop iPod Service thing, uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes, repairing iTunes, using the CD I got with my iPod... nothing worked, and it's still only be recognized but basically unusuable.
The iPod displays the "Do Not Disconnect" message, and shows signs of being charged, so I know it can't be anything wrong with the connection. I've also connected it to my school laptop (running XP Pro SP2, USB 2.0 connection) and it worked perfectly fine, showed up in My Computer and everything.
I've even run iTunes, gone to Help menu -> Run Diagnostics -> iPod Diagnostics, and 3 of the 4 "lights" are green; the last one, "iPod Connection Status" is red. And that, of course, tells me nothing about why my iPod won't be recognized otherwise.
I've come to the conclusion that, under SP2, you can't use USB 1.1 but that makes absolutely no sense at all... could anyone help me out and give me any ideas as to whether or not that is true, or else what might be causing the problem?
Thanks so much in advance!

Just tossing in my experience quickly:
Ever since I "upgraded" to v7 of iTunes, my iPod (60G w/Video) hasn't been recognized, same as Rebecca. Also my TransFlash memory cards aren't recognized, either. I went through many steps listed in these forums, to no avail; I even did a repair install of Windows. I have noticed in my Device Manager the following: a yellow exclamation point beside "parport" and "serial". (Right-click "My Computer" > Properties > Hardware > Device Manager > View > Show Hidden Devices) For both of these entries, under their properties, it says this: "This device is not present, is not working properly, or does not have all its drivers installed. (Code 24)" I haven't found much info surfing the net as of yet... I hope this info helps a bit. Don't mean to hijack, here, either. But in my opinion the new iTunes upgrade corrupts the windows registry somehow, as this story of mine seems to be quite prevalent...

Replaced all parts (except the CPU and MB) individually with the same result ( yes I had spares)

I am unsure what other options i have left at this point

Get a decent PSU with single rail, that means only one +12V line on the PSU, and to have high amperes on the 12V line 30A or more are recommended.
Look here as well:
PSU's---2 x 12v---The Dual Rail Myth
Is your problem caused by your PSU?

Satellite U300 & Windows XP Pro SP2

Hi,
I've installed Windows XP Pro SP2 on U300, I've downloaded all drivers and utilities, everything works fine but I have one device in the Device Manager with Yellow Bang (!) and it's: "PCI Memory Controller".
Where can I get the driver fir it?
Thanks,
Moshe.

Hi Neil,
After doing some research, I found the solution.
U300 contains "Intel Turbo Memory 1GB" (Robson) which use to accelerate
HDD I\O and battery saving, this is actually a hardware card on the PCIe bus.
The problem is that this feature is supported only under Windows Vista... and since
we're using Windows XP all we have to do is just to disable it in the hardware manager.
Regards,
Moshe.

Java_es_05q1-windows-x86 install fails 1628: Failed to complete installation on windows xp pro sp2

Hi All,
I'm trying to install Java ES 2005Q1 on my windows xp pro sp2 notebook, but it always breaks with this error message: 1628: Failed to complete installation
I realized that the SUNJavaES.log always ends at line 151 which is 131077 characters long.
These are the last few characters of this line: ..." AD_MANUAL_ES_CONSOLE_HELP=D:\Sun\JES2005Q1\Server-Root\manua l\es\console\help\ AD_MANUAL_FR_ADMIN=D:\Sun\JES2005Q1\Server-Root\manual\fr\ad min\ AD_MANUAL_FR_ADMIN_HELP=D:\Sun\JES2005Q1\Serve "
I attached the last log file.
This line always breaks at the 131077th char independently of the content of it. I tried to skip some components of JES to see what will occur. The current content of this line obviously was different, but it has broken at the same point.
Thanks in advence for any help.

This could be due to a known issue with length of installation path
Can you try and install in a location with less than 8 characters ?
eg: C:\JES05q1 or C:\Sun

Apple Mobile Device Support fails to install on Windows XP Pro SP2

I have a dualboot between my Vista and my XP, my itunes on Vista works great and can connect with my ipod touch (2.1) but on my XP the installation of AMDS fails. Tried completly re-installing all services, i searched the internet for possible solutions but it seems i'm the only one having problems with windows XP, all the other similar problems are on Vista.
I know it's AMDS that fails because i unpacked the .exe file and ran all the installers one by one, they all work except AMDS (i get a rollback feature). I downloaded it with 3 different browsers from the official apple site and to eliminate that it's my hard drive that gives errors i also did a CHKDSK.
Also, it's not my ipod either, it can connect to my Vista and other computers with windows XP.
All the latest drivers are installed and during the installation no CD/USB was inserted except my mouse, i even tried it with the CD tray open (sometimes helps). Safe mode also doesn't work
I have no idea what's wrong. Could anyone help me out?

Hi,
good news: You're not the only one with this problem. Bad news: I don't have a solution either. To restrict possible answers here is what I did so far:
- computer was set up brand new with Windows XP Pro SP2
- iTunes installed, AMDS didn't, everything deleted after this, nothing (no iTunes, no Quicktime, no Apple updater) left on computer
- disconnected laptop from network, switched off firewall, switched off virus scan
- ran install package for AMDS only, as Johan described, install won't finish, files are first copied then everything gets rolled back (and no log found). This means the service is not existing, so the problem is NOT solved by going into services and switch it on ...
ANYONE PLEEEASE?
Cheers & thanks

Windows XP Pro (SP2) freezes up after Install

To any and all,
I just downloaded the windows version of J2SE v1.4.2_09 SDK with Netbeans Bundle 4.1. The down load went fine, and so did the install.
However, after starting Netbeans, my system freezes up. I've stopped and restarted it, and I even got to the point of being able to type in a simple program, such as "Hello World" just to make sure things are working. But my system freezes up and the CPU utilization pegs out at 100% and I'm forced to reboot.
I have 768 mg of memory with a Pentium III 733 mhz.
What did I miss during the setup process, or what other Windows System changes do I need to make every thing work properly?
I took a basic JAVA class at SUN several years ago, and I haven't had a chance to use it. I need to bone up and I'm not having a very good start.
After some additional research I have some more info. It looks like my old Pentium III is using x86 technology, and the Install Notes/System Requirements on Sun's Download page is referencing IA32 Windows with XP Pro SP2.
Sorry, I'm not a big hardware buff. Could this be my problem with the system locking up? Incompatible chip processors?
The JAVA 2 SDK v1.3.1 only specifies the Op System, XP Pro is among those listed along with a Pentium 166 MHz or higher processor. But it is at the End Of Life for that version.
Are my assumptions correct, the SDK v1.3.1 might work on my machine, but won't be supported any more. While the newer SDK versions are what I want, but I'll need a newer machine to support them?
I am just trying to advance my career a bit and bone up on JAVA. Sounds like I'm caught between a rock and a hard place.
Any suggestions, assumptions, ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks again.

What did I miss during the setup process, have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling?
or what
other Windows System changes do I need to make every
thing work properly? Windows doesn't work properly to begin with, so not sure it's possible to make everything work properly. You could always reinstall Windows (temporary solution).

Hi Nikolay!
Have you installed the VPC Additions after setting up Windows? I believe you can insert your VPC CD and install them on the Windows side through the D: drive.
Hope this helps!
