Vista Ultimate 64-bit OEM edition & USB Audigy 2

Need help, please. Im so confused now (after reading thru these forums all day) as to what exactly I need to do to get my brand new USB Creative Audigy2 NX working with my Vista Ultimate 64bit OEM edition. Every other thing I have on my pc works just fine, except this stupid USB audigy2 NX. I just got rid of my XtremeMusic pci card as Im lacking space inside the PC, and spent big $$$ on this USB unit. But it doesnt work
!!! I can get all the control panels working (such as bass settings, eax etc) but I simply get NO sound whatsoever. Whereas the sound works fine thru the motherboard ports (asus P5N32-sli deluxe with lga775 3.80ghz chip + 4gig 667mhz OCZ ram)?Can someone please tell stupid old me how to get the USB Creative Audigy2 NX working in 5. speakers in Vista 64bit Ultimate ? I dont understand what I need to do. I believe the latest July drivers dont work (well, they dont give me any sound), the february drivers dont seem to be working for me, do I use the XP64bit drivers? What do I need to do? Got print out upon print out from these forums here in front of me, spent 5hrs last night trying to get it working to no avail, and now I think Ive read to many different things and have no idea of where to start. Suggesstions plz? Whats the basic & easy answer ?cheers in advance.

9hours later and Ive given up. I cant get the Vista 64 Ultimate to work with the Audigy 2Nx usb sound card. Im very angry and very frustrated (not to mention very tired from the 2 late nights Ive spent trying to work it out). Im not a PC-noob, but am only 4days into my Vista ownership................... Im guessing now, after much research, that there will never be a driver that gets these units to work with Vista 64bit. thats pretty weak Creative. However, I dont want to use crappy onboard sound for my gaming.What is the suggestion?Should I be looking at returning this unit, and buying either the X-Fi Xtremegamer?Fatality Pro as?a highend device, or the X-Fi Xtremegamer for $00 less? Or should I be looking at another manufacturer. Would either of these x-fi gamers work with Vista 64bit Ultimate?suggestions please?

Premiere Pro CS4 eats my C: drive in Vista Ultimate 64-bit SP1

I installed Premiere Pro CS4 this last weekend 11-12 April 2009.
I have a Quadcore 3.0GHz with 8Gb of RAM, a 150Gb C: drive fo rthe op sys Vista Ultimate 64-bit SP1 and programs, a 500Go D: drive for general data and a K: drive 2Tb RAID0 volume useable about 1.8Gb.
My C: drive was healthy after installation of Premiere Pro with tens of gigabytes free at least. Then I started experimenting with building projects. I put my files on a mix of the D: and K: drives especially the AVCHD video assets on the K:.
While importing these AVCHD assets I eventually got a message from Vista that the C: drive was full and I did a clean up and that gave approximetely 30Gb free, I went back to importing, in a couple of hours the 30Gb was gone, this can only be Premiere Pro CS4 eating the C: drive and never returning what it takes. This of course is a disaster precisely because it is my op sys drive and Vista will periodically want to make new restore points especially before applying downloaded updates from Microsoft. I ahve run also chkdsk and defragmenter with no effect. I think Premiere Pro is using some sort of secret work files on the C: drive somewhere and that they just accumulate, of course this would be a bug.
Support Center does not appear to let me open web support issues even though we are in the 90-day bug fix period and I have registered the product with the product key so that is another bug that gets in the way of fixing the first.
Any ideas please?
Thanks!
Peter.

Yeah, I did not take backups that often cos I did not intend putting the machine onto the net, then I got this device that said it would protect against everything by isolating my machine and making it invisible, I await the analysis by the company but it does appear not to have worked, the only thing that works is very real physical isolation and do not use the internet at all from the main machine. Like I say it simply is not confirmed yet but neither is it denied. You cannot actually go so far as to blame Adobe because stopping hackers is the job of the op sys vendor really so I blame Microsoft, the only blame for Adobe is the policy that some functions require internet connection in order to work when they know internet is not secure, so for instance if you want to use the emulators for things like these mobile phones they want you to be connected, I tried that one phone emulator and it said so, I wish they just put all documentation and all software on the DVD. I can roll back to an earlier Vista version from a USB backup disk that is always powered off, then rebuild as necessary, but I want the security firm to see if it is a trojan in fact first and to see if it can upgrade the security device and provide a roll out of the trojan's work. Right now I am still scripting the documentary and this second quarter is getting this Premiere Pro up ready for third quarter production so I can be philosophical for now, but yes later I will get more disciplined. But at least now I (almost) know the security device is not the all singing wonder they said it was. Oh well. I use a second machine too, a PS3 with Linux, that is what I am using now, this one doesn't seem to get hacked even though it is my sacrificial machine.

Adobe deserves criticism for its shoddy QC, but not for maing you exposing your main machine at risk on the internet. I never do that, and I never have had a virus or malware on it--never in all the years I've been doing this. I have picked up a few on my internet machine, though, but they are easily fixed with the security scheme I use.
As for restore points possibly eating up disk space, which you alluded to earlieranother never for me. Restore points are a half assed measure at best. My security system is a full clone backup of my C drive starting the day I install and OS on it, and every time I add add a program, and every day when I am working a big complex project. Otherwise, once a week. It takes a few minutes only. That way I can restore everything in equally few minutes should anything bad happen, like poorly designed software affecting other software, a virus, malware, etc, and including drive failurewhich has happened twice over the years.
Don't get me wrong, a virus checker is very useful to a point, but real security design has to start long before you install one, especially if your machine is the heart of your business, as it is for me. What is that old saying? An ounce of prevention is worth..........

SQL Developer 1.1.2.2579 will not start in Vista Ultimate 64 bit

I have tried both versions of 1.1.2.2579 (with JRE/JDK and without). Both versions give me "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000018). Click OK to terminate the application." Build 1557 seems to work fine on the same machine (with UAC off. I have not tried it yet with UAC on).
Here are some machine details: MS Windows Vista Ultimate 64 bit, default JVM Sun 1.5.0_11 [Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 1.5.0_11-b03, mixed mode)]. Since other folks had some problems with UAC I disabled that to see if it would make any difference. I get the same result with or without UAC when I try to launch the application normally. With UAC on and using "run as administrator" I get nothing at all. That is I get no error but the application never actually launches either. It doesn't appear to do anything at all.
The version of 1557 that seems to work fine is the one with the JRE.

And???
We can't help you if you don't tell us what you tried
and what happened when you tried it.This is message when try run on vista ultimate x64 "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000018). Click OK to terminate the application."
you can help??? what is happen???
finally sql developer run or not run on vista x64???
p.s.: excuse-me... i don´t write in english very well.... waiting replies!!!
thanks!

Vista Ultimate: 64-bit Installation Problem

Ok so I'm trying to install vista ultimate 64 bit, and when boot camp tells me to insert the disk, I did, then It restarted and when booting, it came to a black screen with white text saying:
1.
2.
*+Select cdrom boot type:+*
The problem here is that I can't type a darn thing! They keyboard doesn't do anything at all, and not even plugging in a usb keyboard worked.
For those who will ask, yes, I have a genuine copy of Vista Ultimate 64-bit which includes a 32 bit version, but I'd rather NOT use the 32 bit one, because hey, I've paid for the one with 64 for a reason.
Does anybody know what to do here? Is there a fix or am I screwed?

Microsoft, Apple and Intel belong to the EFI group. That isn't to say that they implement the same. Some Macs have EFI64 (2.x, UEFI), some have EFI32 (1.x).

Vista Ultimate 64 Bit Version of iTunes?

I just purchased a new laptop w/ Vista Ultimate 64 Bit. When I downloaded iTunes, I received a message stating that I must uninstall iTunes and reload the 64 bit version. However, I'm not able to find a 64 bit version.
Any suggestions?

There is no version of iTunes for 64 bit editions of Windows at this time.

Windows XP Pro (32-bit) and Vista Ultimate (64-bit) on the same Mac Pro HD?

Has anyone been able to install both Windows XP Pro (32-bit) and Windows Vista Ultimate (64-bit) on the same dedicated Windows hard drive? I have four HD in my Mac Pro, and one of them is dedicated for Windows (and bootable via Boot Camp). I found the following technical articles about installing Windows XP & Vista on the same hard drive (using two separate partitions) using a VMWare machine as the test system:
http://apcmag.com/howto_dual_boot_vista_and_xp_with_vista_installed_first__the_stepbystepguide.htm

Has anyone successfully installed Windows XP (32-bit) and Vista 64-bit) on the same NTFS partition?
I already have Windows XP Pro (32-bit) SP3 installed on my single NTFS hard drive. I am looking for the best way to add the Vista 64-bit installation on the same hard drive.
Any thoughts and advise are appreciated.

Windows has its own list of boot OSs, and default, from msconfig. It will sit and wait for xx-seconds on startup in Windows if you want to boot from an alternate.
As to whether Apple's OS Switcher (aka startup disk bootcamp control panel or tray icon) sees both, I had Windows Home Premium and Ultimate 64, and pretty sure OS X saw both. That was pre-Leopard and before there were 64-bit Apple drivers.
I can't think of any scenerio of wanting to mix 32-bit and 64-bit on the same paritition, you realize you can't install the one over the other and must do a clean install.
When I added a partition out of main partition (I wanted to put search index and page file on their own partition) those partitions aren't seen - are hidden - to Leopard.

Installing Windows Vista Ultimate 64 bit on Bootcamp issue

Hi I'm a newbie, I would like to install Windows Vista Ultimate 64 bit using boot camp. I went into boot camp to partition and split the 1 terabyte hardrive. half is for Leopard, the other half is for Windows Vista.
I followed the steps and popped in the disk, awhile later I get a message saying "Where do you want to install Windows?"
It's showing:
Disk 0 Partition 1 200 mb primary
Disk 0 Partition 2 466 gb Primary
Disk 0 unallocated space 128 mb
Disk 0 partition 3 Boot camp 464 gb Primary.
which ever one I click on it says "Windows Cannot be installed to this hard disk space. Windows must be installed to a partition formatted as NTFS"
I can't get passed this part, what do I do?
Any help is greatly appreciated

Hi Stuart,
Vista needs its system partition to be formatted with NTFS.
The BootCamp Asistant does a pre-format with FAT32 since OSX can not write to NTFS partitions (only read).
Therefor you have to reformat the Windows partition with the Vista Installer to NTFS.
See page 11 of the BootCamp Setup Guide found here http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/ (and it's also part of the BootCamp Assistant).

Stefan

Need to install vista ultimate 64 bit

Hi, I recently bought an Apple Macbook Pro 15 with 2.66 GHz Processor, 4GB DDR3 Ram, 320 GB 7200 RPM HDD & Nvidia 9600 GT 512MB DDR3 Graphics Chipset. Actually I want to create a new partition to install Windows Vista Ultimate 64 bit Os so can somebody please guide me? As you already know that the trackpad of this notebook doesn't have any click buttons so can you please tell about how to right click a folder or file on windows vista? Thanks!

Bootcamp: Sound not working on Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit

Hello everyone, I've got quite an unsual problem (whell at least I think anyway). On my iMac (Mid 2008, 2.4Ghz C2D, 2GB ram, 2400XT), I recently installed Windows Vista Ultimate (32 bit). I've been using the sound out of the speakers, until now when I decided to connect some extenal speakers. I have the bootcamp drivers installed (from Snow Leopard DVD). When I plugged the headphone jack into the headphone socket on the back, I noticed that the sound was still coming out of the speakers, so I opened the preferences and it showed that I had something plugged into the line-in jack- which I didn't! I removed the headphone jack from the headphone socket and plugged it into the line-in. Nothing changed in the preferences. So basically, Windows thinks the line-out port is line-in! I would appreciate some help with this issue, not sure how common it is!
Thanks :-)

Hi I'm not sure if this is going to help but have you got the service pack 1 installed on your laptop as when I installed it on my desktop the first time it caused blue screen errors and gave me loads of problems including error messages that seemed to come up with every application I opened and an annoying driver IQRL equal or less than but couldn't work out why and then in the end I had so many problems I had to totally reformat my desktop and I removed my XP scanner and webcam(both had vista drivers) and when I reinstalled the service pack 1 it was fine, so do you by any chance have anything attached to your laptop that was XP and has vista drivers as these seemed to be what was causing my errors.
Also a question about your graphic card drivers, I've got the same laptop as you and was looking for the graphic card driver updates and couldn't find them anywhere on the site, where did you find yours? I'm using Vista Home Premium 32 bit , my model number is A200-28P(PSAE6) and I'd love to know if there is a newer graphics card driver but can't find it on the knowledge base so the fact you've updated yours would you mind pointing a new user in the right direction :-)
Thanks,

Firefox 26 crashes on exit in Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit.

It doesn't matter if I click the Red X, go under File -> Exit or type Alt + F4 to exit out of Firefox under Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit. It almost always produces an error message that Firefox has stopped working.
I can't find how to post a JPEG Screenshot of the error message here.
This doesn't occur under Windows XP Pro.
Otherwise, the browser works fine under either OS.

Here's the screenshot(s). I had to take 2 because the lower portion of the error message that lists the details won't expand.

Lenovo T400 Vista Ultimate 64-bit - Fingerprint reader not working

I just recently upgraded from Vista Business 32-bit to Vista Ultimate 64-bit and after installing all the drivers and whatnot, I noticed the only thing not working is the fingerprint reader.
I'm using Lenovo Fingerprint Software Version: 3.3.2.27
which is the right version.
I can't seem to find the driver for the fingerprint reader ANYWHERE for Vista 64-bit. Is the driver included in the software? Do I have to download it separately? If so, where? If not, then why isn't it working?!

? Vista Ultimate (64-Bit), iTunes, iPhone, and Virtual PC 2007 ?

I have a new PC on the way with <sigh> Vista Ultimate 64-bit. I know that iTunes and the iPhone don't currently support this operating system. I'm wondering if anyone has had any success running iTunes in a 32-bit virtual PC under VU64.
Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

Moot now that a 64-bit version is out.

Vista Ultimate 64-bit and Bootcamp

I installed Vista Ultimate 64-bit in my new 100GB Bootcamp partition. Then, I could not get out of Windows back to 10.6.8 since the usual bootcamp icon was not present at the bottom of the window. I had to reboot from the Snow Leopard startup disk.
When I had installed Vista last year, I had used the 32-bit disk; would the 64-bit version have caused problems?

Reboot and hold the option key down, you'll get the Boot Manager and a chance to pick an operating system.
OR
In OSX go to System Preferences> Startup Disk and select an operating system there
OR
In Windows go to Control Panel>BootCamp>Startup Disk and select an operating system there

ITunes and Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit

Is there an iTunes version that is compatible with the 64-bit version of Windows Vista Ultimate? If so, can you please let me know?

I have iTunes 7.3.2.6 running on Ultimate Vista 64. I initially had problems with it recognizing my DVD-RW but eventually found a solution in this group related to the GEAR drivers.
The only problem that remains is not recognizing the current user as administrator unless you "launch as administrator." But this has not affected performance.
BTW, when application developers list "32-bit Vista" under system requirements, this does not mean that 64-bit Vista versions can't run it, it only means that it's not a 64-bit app. Vista 64 is designed to run 32-bit apps.

Vista Ultimate 64 bit problems with staticy audio or completely missing audio in gam

I've been having consistent problems with my X-FI board under 64-bit Windows Vista Ultimate. What's weird about it is that every time Creative comes out with a new driver, my problem goes away for about a day then comes back.
Here's what I have:
Asus A8N32-SLI Deluxe motherboard
Athalon 64 Dual Core processor
4 GB of memory
Windows Vista Ultimate (recenly patched to SP)
The problem I'm encountering is that only when I have the full 4 GB of memory enabled I get static at the end of every Windows sound. For gaming, it's a crap shoot - sometimes it works, others I have to restart the game multiple times or reboot the machine to get any audio at all.
I contact Creative but they categorically refused to provide email-based support since the board was out of warranty - they suggested the forums (I'd looked but not found anything that helped) or a pay per use tutorial (I don't need a tutorial, I know how to use the card).
Any suggestions? Again, as soon as I switch to 3 GB of memory - works like champ. Switch on the full 4 GB and it hardly works. I turned off the cool & quiet feature of my mobo. Updated all the drivers I can find. I'm at a loss for ideas. Help?

And???
We can't help you if you don't tell us what you tried
and what happened when you tried it.This is message when try run on vista ultimate x64 "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000018). Click OK to terminate the application."
you can help??? what is happen???
finally sql developer run or not run on vista x64???
p.s.: excuse-me... i don´t write in english very well.... waiting replies!!!
