VISTA 64 bit software support

My good ol computers hard drive crashed. It was using Windows XP. I already replaced the motherboard, so I decideded it time for a new computer. I now have a HP with VISTA 64 bit operating system. Problem is, I am with Earthlink and their software does not support 64 bit. Even though I have had very little problems with the DSL becoming slow or droping out, as I am hearing from these threads on this forem.
Can Verizion support the 64 bit computers?

Verizon for home users either uses:
#1 DHCP
#2 OR PPPoE.
Either way, you do not the verizon software to get online.
If you are not behind a router, you are running Windows Vista, and your connection type in PPPoE...
See as need be: http://windowshelp.microsoft.com/Windows/en-us/help/f573e922-3dde-baac-69ef-a115548a83411033.mspx
Before doing anything else..
#1 What is the brand and model of your modem?
#2 Do you have any router (If so, what one do you have)?
#3 Do you use DHCP or PPPoE?
If you don't know the answer to the last one..
Here is a hint. Which is a quick quote from [url=http://www.dslreports.com/faq/1252]DSLR All FAQs » Verizon Online DSL FAQ » 7. Setup »
Verizon GTE Setup [/url]
* GTE areas of Verizon do not need PPPoe (WinPoet/Raspppoe) for their setup. This is only needed by the old BellAtlantic customers. *

Labview with Vista 64 bit native support

I'm waiting day after day to see a new Labview release supporting Vista 64 bit (I mean running at 64bit natively and not in a 32bit emulation layer). I expected it last year... then I waited believing that of course... it'll come soon... but now I'm really panicking.
64bit CPUs and Vista x64 are now available from a long time ! What's going on ?
Did I miss some release note ??? Maybe is already available and I don't know ? (I hope so!)
In the mean time Microsoft announced the discontinuation of Windows XP on June 2008 this year (3 moths from now)!!!
Does anyone knows when a full 64bit Labview version will be released ? And what about Vision libs ? (I also need full 64 bit Vision Libs for my applications...)
I have big memory allocation limits due to 32bit addressing (max 2GB) that I cannot afford anymore... not in the 2008.
I write Vision acquisition software using Labview, IMAQ Hardware and Advanced IMAQ Vision Libs.
As everybody know, memory allocation is "generally" limited to 2GB by the 32bits OS (little more with some tricks) but max image allocation in Labview is anyway much smaller because of default memory fragmentation (Labview and Vision LIBs require allocating a "contiguous memory block" and generally no more then 3-500MB are really available for a single image even with 4GB of memory installed in your PC! This is caused by all DLLs and processes running in memory at different addresses and fragmenting the memory).
I spoke several time with NI concering this problem in the last years and I was told to wait... in the mean time I had to write a special "memory defragmentation" tool myself in order to free up to 1.2GB of RAM for imaging with Labview. Not enough for me and anyway not a clean solution.
Then after Microsoft announced Vista 64bit (a few years ago now) and all PC manufacturer starting building 64bit architecture I expected to solve all my problems soon because of the much larger usable memory addressability...
but this cannot be done yet if Labview and Vision LIBs run in 32bit emulation only !!!
Furthermore Vista 32bit is much slower then XP and uses much more memory !!! This is really a nightmare as I believe that for the first time I'm facing the possibility that soon I'll have to deliver a "newer" but worst product to my customers.
In fact I'll be forced soon to move from LV 7/8 to LV 8.5 (just in order to support Vista) but only to be slower and having the same memory limitations (or maybe more).
Maybe I'm wrong ?
Can anyone reassure me... LV 9 is just after the corner with full 64bit as requested ??? I'm really in panick !
Thanks...
I'm really a LV lover but cannot wait anymore...

Dear Matt,
I was aware of the /3GB and I tryed time ago with LV 7 and XP but without being able to allocate a larger image anyway...
I'll try again and for sure 4GB under Vista 64 is better then anything !!! Do you know if "Image Create.vi" (a VI included in the Vision package) is also able to allocate up to 4GB ?
Concerning Memory defrag I started using some tools available in the marlet (there are good ones for memory analyzing but no one is capable of defragging the memory really)... then a coupple of years ago I wrote a small application in Labview based on 2 free tools provided on the web (those are free tools for developpers provided from Microsoft)...
One is Listdlls.exe which is a command line capable of listing all running DLLs (associated with any running application) and it produces a memory map of the DLLs allocation in memory which allow you to understand how memory is fragmented.
The other one is also a command line tool named Rebase.exe which allow you to a DLL to a different address in memory.
In fact once rebased a DLL will generally load automatically starting at the new address instead of loading in the middle of the memory or at the original address... but not always as some rare system DLLs will anyway try to load always at the same position (as for Asian Language Pack on Chinese/Japanese OS). Furthermore some DLLs need to be loaded to a specific address.
I wrote a program in order to automatically create a memory map of all running DLLs (including system ones) using Listdlls.exe and automatically rebasing them after the first 128MB in memory. Rebasing system/running DLLs is generally more difficult (because of the required access policy and because you must plan a replacement only after next reboot) ... my software take care of this.
Furthermore rebasing running/system DLLs is also dangerous and can crash your system... after many test I limited the rebasing to the memory addresses included between 256MB and 1.6GB... I never have problems rebasing all DLLs in these range (including system ones) under XP 32bit SP2.
I also move DLLs to free space only (not on already occupyed space). Furthermore I never allocate DLLs in the first 128MB (as you'll crash your system probably). In this way I was capable of freing a lot of memory (generally about 15-20 DLLs are reallocated and memory between is free between 300 and 1.6)... something more can be done manually on the higher memory addresses but it take times and must be checked always. In automatic mode my software is capable of freing memory in 2 seconds (but you need a reboot).
Backing up original DLLs is also suggested in order to be able to restore them in case of any problem. I implemented an automatic backup and a restore option for this. A manual mode allow me to manually move DLLs in memory (but it's more dangerous and never allow my customer to do it).
Generally after rebased the memory stay defragmented until you install a new OS patch (which replace old DLLs).
Then you must be aware then in order to mantain the memory clean when running your application in Labview you should preallocate a large memory block when starting your application preventing labview from allocating resources in your free memory (it must use memory outside the 300-1600MB range). This is another problem... I found it hard to solve and my application is doing a good job but not perfect for this.
p.s. Labview and LV Runtimes are major cause of memory fragmentation as they load just in the middle of the system memory... these are the first DLLs ro be rebased !!!

Downloading vista 64 bit software on xp computer

Hi,
I have recently bought a new computer (OS - Vista 64 Bit) however I cannot hook it up to the internet as my current internet set up (modem) is not compatible. Is there anyway I could download 7.6 (OS - windows vista 64 bit) version onto my current computer (OS - XP) and transfer it over.
Thanks in advance

Odd Vista 64-bit Ultra behavior with BC 2.1

I successfully installed BC 2.1 drivers on my XP OS on the other MBP last night. It appeared in the Apple Software Update.
However, this morning, on this box, I booted into Vista and expected to see the BC update in the Apple Software update window.
I did receive the same small update as I did on XP, but after installing everything and rebooting, I still did not receive notification of the big BC update.
I downloaded the correct version manually and started the install.
When I clicked it, Vista asked me if I trusted it, (as usual) and I clicked "Yes"
After that, nothing happened. I waited for a few minutes and then turned on the graphic activity monitor but it was not running.
I repeated the process and got the same results (No, I am not crazy, it's software )
When I get back into Vista, I will turn off all the security stuff, keep the box off-line and see if that helps.
So far, I am batting 500. My XP is fine and updated, Vista is still running fine, but the update did not activate.
I wonder if anyone else has experienced this strange thing - the exe file opening, Vista asking for permission, and then - - - nothing.

Seriously. I am very upset at Apple for screwing this up and not fixing it ASAP.
Are you running Vista 64-bit yourself? You seem to be more ranting than expressing a problem.
Apple touts that their machines are better because the software and hardware are specifically designed for together, and although this is true for Macintosh, I am very disappointed that they decided to screw Windows users.
More ranting, no specific issue
It's not that hard to provide working 64-bit drivers for only a few machine types. There are so many 64-bit versions of their Intel machines (since 2006?).
I don't know about that. You are just surmising about software. Do you have a specific issue?
This is bad for business. Although ironic, many people use Windows on their Macs only. Paying a premium for Apple hardware and not receiving what is to be expected or beyond an ordinary PC will definitely stop repeat customers.
This is not a showstopper. My Vista Ultimate 64-bit system is working fine without the update and I am sure Apple will deal with it properly. Apple did not support 64-bit OSs. We who are running Vista 64-bit knew this from the get-go. We had to initially find our own drivers.
Anyone needing Windows for business would be foolish to be running an unsupported OS, such as Vista 64-bit on a Mac. I installed it to learn things.
Vista 32-bit is supported under BootCamp, as well as XP. Read the system requirements for BootCamp before spending time posting a non-technical message on a technical board.
That being said, I suggest anyone having problems to report it on the developer's website contact form.

Vista 64 bit and new MacBook Pro 17"

Any idea where to get Boot Camp drivers for the new 17" MBPro? When trying to install Vista 64 bit the system claims there are no drivers available from the OS X disk or when trying to run the 2.1 update.
Thanks!

Macs that support Vista 64-bit:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1846
And, Boot Camp 2.1 drivers included in 10.5.4+ DVD
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1999
If you don't have or see /BootCamp on your OEM or retail DVD that came with your 17" MacBook Pro, you may need to contact Apple Care or Customer Service.
Even though the above article does not specifically mention the 17" model (newest and latest) I assume it is just that article(s) aren't always updated in a timely enough fashion.
I would not bother with the download, or even via Apple SU if it does 'offer' 2.1, and just use your Leopard DVD. (If you do want to install or update, then be sure to create a Restore Point; use WinClone and/or Vista Ultimate PC Backup and Restore center and backup your system to external drive.

BC2.1 Vista 64-bit gone!

I just noticed that the 64-bit version of BootCamp for Vista is no longer on the Apple download site.
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/windows/
Some of us contacted their developer center
http://developer.apple.com/contact/
and pointed out that BC2.1 has some issues that are difficult to overcome.
Perhaps a new, universal 64-bit BC2.1 will be released??
I could only install mine by first installing the intermediate BC2.04, discussed elsewhere.
I think this is related to my having installed Vista 64-bit during beta.

I went through all the Apple knowledge Base articles I could find which references Vista 64-bit.
http://support.apple.com/kb/index?page=extarticle
When Apple had to release two versions of the Nvidia 8800GT, one for current 2008 Mac Pro, another for older 2006/7 model year, all becuause they used 32-bit EFI in first generation, and 64-bit EFI (which might qualify as UEFI 2.x).
The BC 2.1 32-bit would install, the 64-bit version would not.
It is the same though with having to look specifically for the 64-bit version of iTunes rather than what is offered automatically.
When installing BootCamp drivers (the Apple setup.exe off Leopard, or from BC 1.3 or 1.4) two components, including HAL.dll never install.
I also rounded up KB that stated only three Macs actually have full "official" support for Vista 64-bit, latest MacBook/MacBook Pro and the Mac Pro 2008. The new Penryn iMac should be listed I think, but isn't. Which led me to think that on the specs page for those systems, it should include which Windows OS they support, along with OS X version.
Stuff is scattered all over, and most articles have a lag time, "after the fact" feel to them. ie, What you need to know when choosing a Mac or choosing Windows OS. Putting the cart before the horse.
One person wanted to use 4GB+ of memory, but had settled on using XP Pro 32-bit and would not budge, so having iMac or Mac Pro with 4 or 8GB RAM would not get used or be addressible. But didn't want Vista 64-bit (which is one reason I went looking for clear documentation on Mac model/Windows OS.
I did come across a nice MacRumors Guide "Windows on Mac"

Is Creative Alchemy Supported on Vista 64 bit? Attention Creative Mod p

Ok I'm confused.
I've had a creative X-Fi Fatalty card for a couple of years that came with a Mesh pc I bought.
So I buy all the kit for a new pc and think I can just move the card across. I install Vista 64, install service pack and all is peachy apart form my Razer mouse that needs a new driver.
I install a load of old games and they work fine. Some fine tuning for allowing games to run as admin, but considering my new pc is so much faster, and the greater security (i've been told, and call me sad?but i believe it) I'm thinking its worth it.
Wow I think, this vista malaky's great!
Pop in my creative?soundcard?download the drivers and think here we go.
So I install Half life 2. A fairly old game. And it all starts going wrong. I load up the first level and I suddenly only have 2.0 sound.
open up the console and notice all kinda errors (on screen node graph out of date, A. I.disabled, and a load more in the console when i look).
Are they caused by Vista or Creative? I dunno, i didn't load half life prior to installing the card so it could be either to be fair.
So I read up more to try to work it out and I come across a funny thing. If in Creatives download manger pages you tell it you have a creative Fatalty soundcard,and you have a vista 64bit operating system then there are no downloads.
But if you put in Vista 32 bit then you get offered the Alchamey drivers. Which state that they are for 32 and 64 bit versions of Vista.
Now i've been looking at these forums for the last 2 days and I'm begining to feel a little worried. I'm not a sound Guru and I don't understand alot of whats been discussed. I don't feel i'm in a place to pass judgemnt on Creative cos the only contact I've had with their support staff was with a Zen Micro that was out of warrenty and they fixed that for free. Didn't even charge me P&P to send it back!
So I'm really not sure where I stand. I'm about to download the alchemy software that may/may not work with vista 64 by admission of their own website, and can't help but feel that support isn't quite what I was hoping for, and used to. Is the MP3 part of Creative effectivly a seperate company or something?
Now I don't want to start yet another bash creative post.
What I'd really like is a comment from Creative as to why their driver page does/doesn't offer you the right downloads and a solution to my problem.
Call me selfish but I kinda dcame to the Creative Help forums for some, well, Help.
I'd really appreciate if all the pro and anti forum trolls could stay off this topic and give creative a chance to show they can do good support.

JohnZS, thanx very much for the prompt response. I really do appreciate it.
But let me get this straight.
I've had to download a software package from a page I shouldn't have been at.
I have to add values to a software package that I have to rely on good natured people on a forum to supply.
And no offence, but even then I don't have the whole answer. I have to search manually for the registry or game path for the ?.exe? I assume (I'm doing this whilst tring to solve my prob, so I could well be wrong about this) tomake the **bleep** think work.
And this thing is Vista stickered?
Ok still going with the no bandwagon jumping plse people, I'm just an honest guy with no agenda apart from blowing **bleep** up on my poota as a stress release, so I'd like to see from Creative where I'm going wrong here.
Oh I seriously forgot the no swearing policy, and on forums like this I do agree with it, its just its late, i'm a bit annoyed, and to be frank, slightly drunk.

Hi there!
Please see this thread for the download links for the Fingerprint Software 5.8 ....
This issue was already raised in the ThinkVantage subforum here at Lenovo Forums and it is resolved.
Regarding the Turbo Memory, please keep in mind that the hardware only works with Vista. Windows XP does not support turbo memory thus the piece of hardware is rendered useless. With regards to Turbo Memory usage in Vista, the latest drivers do fully support the card in Vista and since there are no technological changes, there is no need for additional or new drivers.
Hope this helps!

Can I change my w700 vista 32 bit to windows 7 64 bit since lenovo says they only support 64bit w7

I have a 5-6 month old w700 (2757-cto) that came with 32bit vista downgraded to 32bit xpp. It worked pretty good but the operating system wasn't stable enough for what I do so I upgraded to windows 7 32bit beta. It worked except the wacom pad didn't respond (a common complaint) when windows 7 came out I redid the operating system from scratch, reloaded the drivers and found that the fingerprint software and the wacom tablet still didn't work. I went to lenovo's update to windows 7 page and found out that the w700 is only supported for 64 bit windows, I bought windows 7 64 bit and tried to reconfigure my computer but the boot keeps coming up that there is no operating system on the disk. I then called software support and was told they wouldn't help me because it's an "upgrade" and that isn't their job.
I then tried windows vista ultimate (32 bit version) which is similar to the operating system I supposedly bought (windows vista business is the sticker on the bottom of the computer) This had no trouble with the operating system on the disk and the fingerprint software worked but the wacom tablet still didn't work.
I would like to use windows 7 64 bit (if this actually works with the wacom tablet -- I don't have much faith left) otherwise I'd like to use windows vista 32 bit which is what they sold me but doesn't work with the tablet in spite of using every combination of removing previous software, rebooting, etc, etc--[you don't want to know] .
Any suggestions or similar experience would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
JRF

After installing Windows 7 64bit on Intel SSD I install ThinkVantage System Update 4.0.
that have installed the necessary drivers.
Wacom tablet works as well as all 32bit and 64 bit graphics program,
even the games work when you install DirectX 9.

Still no Vista 64 bit support?

I have been reading the forums with a rapidly sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach. After having a TX for only a year, I now have to find another product. I just bought a new puter, and it's running Vista 64 bit. I have had Palms for years, but since they seemingly have no plans to release the software for Vista 64 bit, even though pretty soon that's what everyone will have, my TX is useless to me. It seems that it's been more than a year since they said they were "working" on it, but I am thinking that was only the 32 bit version.
It's a shame, I really liked my Palm.

If you have read the forums, then you are also aware of the Bluetooth Solution which is available.
Because there really isn't anything more to add to the discussion (other than hoping maybe the new Palm OS under development will have 64 bit support), we'll close this thread.

Vista 64 bit support

Hi All,
I'm thinking about replacing my currently aging laptop with
an HP Pavilion tx1000z. I have the option of getting Vista 64 bit.
I've poked around and haven't been able to find definitely whether
or not Flex Builder 3 works on Vista 64.
Any Vista 64 bit users here who have had success/failure with
Flex Builder 3 on Vista Ultimate 64?
I'm interested also in any feedback you have on other Adobe
software (e.g., AIR SDK/runtime, Dreamweaver, Fireworks --
particularly web related software).

Eclipse doesn't officially support Vista 64 until 3.4 M1
http://www.eclipse.org/swt/R3_4/new_and_noteworthy.html
That said, you can run a 32-bit version of eclipse with a
32-bit JRE. I'm not really sure whether we will have official
support for this configuration in Flex Builder 3. At this point
there is no 64-bit Flash Player either.

Does Premiere Pro CS4 really support Vista 64-bit?

I have installed Premiere Pro CS4 on my Vista 64-bit server and recognized in the task manager that Premiere is listed as a 32-bit application "Adobe Premiere Pro.exe *32" which makes me wonder if Adobe's statement given in the FAQ is correct, where they say "Adobe Premiere Pro is optimized to run on 64-bit systems. The key advantage of 64-bit systems is that they can use up to 64GB of RAM. Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 can use large amounts of this memory because it splits different tasks into separate processes."
Am I executing the correct Premiere Pro EXE-file (the application itself works fine) and is that 32-bit application able to make use of the fully available RAM space (which is 8 GB on my system)?

Well great for you Harm, but this problem has me stumped. I've been troubleshooting NLE systems since my Pinnacle DC30 Premiere 4.2 system.
I'm looking for a solution not to start a fight so if anyone has confronted similar problems and found a fix, please reply.
FYI, Adobe has made it clear that Premiere CS4 does not support daisy chaining decks or any other 1394 devices, but this is not my problem.
"Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 doesn't support multiple devices on a FireWire chain or multiple devices on a FireWire card."
Above quote copied from this Adobe support document http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/405/kb405744.html
I'm not working with DV I have been shooting in 720P on a Sony PVW EX1 if that even matters.
Can you explain why my external array works well with XP fairly well with 32 bit Vista? It's an ASUS P5E Deluxe motherboard. This is not BS, I have a long list of Microsoft case numbers and it is REAL pain having to explain to someone in India the problem over and over again. I've been told by the array manufacturer SimpleTech ProDuo that it should work with the OS drivers. The Internet forums for other 1394 devices have many instances of 64 bit Vista incompatibility. The same problems I'm having with the same OS just different devices. What's really weird is how it will work fine like today, it's back to normal. I have had this system working perfectly then overnight the array vanishes in my computer but shows up in device manager with an error. Then a few hours later without changing anything, it starts working again, very intermittent. As usual, it will fail when there's a deadline.
I've run Avast antivirus, Malwarebytes and Spybot. Swapped cables,defragged drives, updated MB bios and software looked everywhere for solutions.
The MB Manual is found at http://support.asus.com/download/download.aspx?SLanguage=en-us
I can transfer content to my internal array but I'm trying to optimize a workflow that starts by shooting on SxS cards on the PVW EX1 and transferring them to the array in the field with the 32 bit Vista laptop and making rough cuts. I keep the project files on a USB drive. Then transfer the array and USB drive to the 9450 quad desktop system in the studio for final editing. When I get this to work, it's a real time saver. But transferring files to the internal array is possibly the only dependable solution for now.

Itunes support, Windows vista 64 bit?

Is it known whether there is a future with Itunes support in the vista 64 bit platform? Is it in the near future or at least being worked on? Any info would be great, thanks!

I am afraid we are all just users here and Apple doesn't share it's plans. However lots of people are using 64 bit Windows and many seem to be able to get iTunes to work with a little effort.
Why not feed back your concers to Apple on this form, the more requests for 64 bit support the better.
