T500: Can you run Vista 64 bit on it?

I have an Intel Core2Duo 2.8GHz T9600 on my Thinkpad T500 and want to know if I can run Vista 64 bit. Has anyone tried it or know if it is even possible?
Any feedback?
Thanks for your help!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Your system is more than enough for Vista 64 bit. My R61 is running Vista 64 bit, given that it only has a 1.66 ghz Core 2 Duo.

Can you run 32 bit software on a 64 bit Mac Book Pro?

I have a MacBook Pro (mid 2012, 64 bit) and need (not want! but need) to add Bootcamp in order to run Windows 7 Professional. The W7 version I have is 32 bit program -- can I run it on my MacBook or must I use a 64 bit version of Windows? Note: I can not use Windows 8 for the proprietary software I am trying to use. I recently upgraded to Yosemite. Thanks!

Can I run 32 bit firefox on my Windows 7, 64 bit and how ? Flash player loads slow.

Can I run 32 bit Firefox on my Windows 7, 64 bit and how do I do that? Flash player loads videos slowly. You tube videos are mostly loading slowly or hanging up. It seems to have happened after the last Firefox update.

According to website I have Flash Player installed but I cannot run a program (BBC iPlayer DeskTop) that requires 64 Bit Flash player Any ideas?
Does that program require the Flash Player ActiveX Control, or the plugin? If you only have the ActiveX Control (for Internet Explorer) installed, then you may also need the plugin (for other browsers). Get it from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/

Can you run Embedded PL/SQL Gateway and Oracle HTTP Server at the same time

Hi,
I know this will sound a bit odd but their is a business case for asking this. Can you run APEX via the Embedded PL/SQL Gateway and the Oracle HTTP Server at the same time? Would their be any security/stability/etc issues I'd need to worry about? I know that I'll need to run them on different ports.
Thank you,
Martin Giffy D'Souza

I think I've done this in the past. Theres no technical reason why you can't do this as far as I know.
I can't remember if I used different ports or same port.

Can I run 32-bit kernel on OS X Yosemite?

Can I run 32-bit kernel on OS X Yosemite?

Not sure if you are still having an issue, but I've encountered similar problems with more recent OS'. I am NOT AN EXPERT HERE so I want to make that clear. I may not be 100% correct in my understanding.
To my understanding, OS X Lion was the last OS that you can run 32-bit kernels on, but most people seem to prefer Snow Leopard for this task due to better legacy support and how 10.6.8 Snow Leopard is an extremely reliable OS. For Mountain Lion and later, you more or less run the compatibility mode that is the same context as you can do from Windows 8.1. I've had limited success here. I have a copy of OS X Snow Leopard so I can run at 32-bit installed on my hard drive and run OLD apps that do not like Yosemite. As I am running it through VMWare Fusion 7, I can't tell you if you can run Snow Leopard in 32 bit mode via a secondary install or not (I think it depends on your hardware and if your hardware shipped with Mountain Lion or later, then this is NOT possible even if booting through a 32 bit-capable OS...I COULD BE WRONG!)
One other option is if you have an old copy of Windows XP or something, you can do a 32 bit install through a virtual machine and update the firmware through the VM (obviously you would need drivers to allow it to recognize USB or Firewire or etc. devices to update the FW of a hardware component, which Parallels and Fusion are both capable of and do very well...but they are paid (free trial for both). Oracle has a VM which is free, but I do not know much about its functionality.) There are even certain software apps made to run older programs on OS X reliably...I do not know if they would be of benefit in your case or not.
Obviously that is a little bit of a pain but truth be told, I find that both Apple and Microsoft OS' have limitations when attempting to run older programs on newer OS. Old programs don't tend to run well on Yosemite or Windows 8.1, despite the fact that the operating systems themselves are reasonably reliable. I don't blame them as it seems this is just something that is very difficult to do reliably in a world where new technology is favored over legacy support. So that is why I have a 32-bit capable version of both OS X and Windows in addition to the current respective 8.1 and 10.10.2.
If this is a one-time deal and you do not think you will need to do the same thing down the road, you could skip all of the above and just borrow a computer from a friend with a 32-bit OS, or even go to a Fedex Kinkos or something and see if they will let you run the application from there. A lot of Mac users do have Parallels or Fusion on their Mac so someone local might be able to help you out. As Snow Leopard was the last OS to incorporate certain hardware support, it is still used extensively (some estimate it is used on around 1/4 of all Macs).

Can we run 32 bit application over 64 bit windows server 2012 ?

Can we run 32 bit application over 64 bit windows server 2012 ?

Hi,
Thanks for your question.
Since the two cases that you posted are the same, I will merge them so that you can get a better assistance. Thanks for your understanding
and support.
In addition, according to your question, it depends on the applications. Some applications designed for the 32-bit version of Windows
will work on the 64-bit version of Windows, but some are not. Before you install the application, you’d better check if it is compatible with 64-bit version of Windows Server 2012.
Best regards,
Susie

Can you run indesign cs4 on a laptop without internet connection

I believe that Indesign CS4 checks over the internet before opening. If that is the case can you run it on a laptop without an internet connection?
Thanks

From an earlier post by Nicolas Mertens:
"here's what I got from Customer Services about this problem:
[Help] files are located in the following location:
C:/Program Files/Common Files/Adobe/Help/en_us/InDesign/6.0. Also
from that location, you can launch the file 'index.html' and this
should direct you to *the online help that you would access through
the program itself.*"
I found that the files are not at that location, but at C:/Program
Files/Common Files/Adobe/Help/en_GB/InDesign/6.0 (this is in Windows
Vista, by the way). "
Yours would presumably be at [the German equivalent of
..]/de-DE/InDesign6.0, or whatever your locale is (AT, CH...)

Can you run Adobe Photoshop CS version 8 on Yosemite?

Can you run Adobe Photoshop CS version 8 on Yosemite?

Well if you want permanent license Adobe software, here is the price list for the CS6 catalog . Creative Suite 6
Just know that with the exception of Adobe Camera Raw updates, CS6 will have maintenance updates, but not the features of CC 2014.
The rental model called Creative Cloud means you will have the software installed on your Mac and you can work with your files as before, it's just that activation depends on a $50 monthly fee. Upgrades are piped in at no further cost, and you have the freedom to switch platforms and interface languages. You activate on up to two computers, PC, Mac or mixed. 20 GB online storage for collaboration, and you can also store and sync your settings and custom presets. Typekit if you'd like to try new and difference fonts.
Look at it this way, it's not a big deal if you are in business. You rent many things and this is probably not your largest monthly expense.

Can I run 32 bit version of Oracle 10g grid on Linux x86-64?

Since Oracle did not release 64 bit version of Oracle 10g grid for Linux X86-64. Can I run 32 bit version of Oracle 10g grid on Linux x86-64? If so did anyone tried this? and also any known issues?

All I had to do was use the 32bit version of "/usr/bin/gcc" and "/usr/bin/g++" to run the installation
That is:
bin]# cp -p /usr/bin/gcc /usr/bin/gcc_old
bin]# mv /usr/bin/gcc /usr/bin/gcc323
mv: overwrite `/usr/bin/gcc323'? y
bin]# ln -s /usr/bin/gcc296 /usr/bin/gcc
bin]# cp -p /usr/bin/g++ /usr/bin/g++_old
bin]# mv /usr/bin/g++ /usr/bin/g++323
mv: overwrite `/usr/bin/g++323'? y
bin]# ln -s /usr/bin/g++296 /usr/bin/g++
AFTER INSTALLATION REMEMBER TO
move back the 64bit files to their former state.
bin]#rm /usr/bin/g++
bin]#rm /usr/bin/gcc
bin]#mv /usr/bin/gcc_old /usr/bin/gcc
bin]#mv /usr/bin/g++_old /usr/bin/g++

Can you run a windows only Photoshop plugin on a Mac using Parallels?

Can you run a windows only Photoshop plugin on a Mac using Parallels? In particular a .8BF plugin like PTFilters.8BF or Super Cubic.

If you also have a Photoshop version of the Photoshop application, the answer is of course YES.
Otherwise, the answer is no,
If you have the CC subscription, then of course you can install a Photoshop Windows version and run your plug-in. That'll be separate from your Photoshop Mac install..

Can you run labview on Windows Tablet PC Edition?

Can you run labview on Windows Tablet PC Edition?...or does LabVIEW executable and Run-time engine operate with this OS?

LabVIEW 7.x will run without any problems on a Windows Tablet PC with SP1. There have been documented issues with Windows XP SP2 and LabVIEW subsequently not exiting properly--LabVIEW's window closes but somehow it is still present in the task manager.
Hope this helps.
