Windows 7 64-bit edition compatibility

I was doing some research before installing Windows 7 64-bit edition on my MBP. I found in this article (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1846) that my MBP is not covered for the install, because mine was made in Mid-2007 I think.
Question (but a statement first). I would like to install the 64 bit edition, because then I would have access to all 4GB of RAM, rather than being capped at 3. It is really not a huge deal. But I have a Core 2 Duo and 4GB of RAM, so does anyone know which components don't meet the requirements for the 64-bit edition.
I am not going to do anything that is going to screw up my computer in the long run. I was just wondering if anyone knew why this would not work.

The Windows 7 DVD for 64-bit and your EFI 32-bit firmware.
There are ways around this, but back in 2007 the EFI 64-bit wasn't finalized yet, which became Unified EFI 2.x / EFI64.
Modifying the DVD is the one way I know, but required first installing temporarily in a VM (Sun/Oracle, Fusion, etc) and modifying (reburn) the ISO.

Problem with PC Suite and Windows 7 Home Edition 64-bit

I installed PC Suite on my desktop with Windows 7 Home Edition 64-bit installed. I was able to eventually run PC Suite (granted it needed to run in XP SP2 compatibility mode) and sync my calendar on my W518a cell phone with PC Suite via Bluetooth communications. After I turned off my computer and restarted it, I could no longer open up PC Suite...its icon appears in my system tray with a red X over it as if it can't find the program.
The SonyEricsson website indicates PC Suite can run with Windows 7.
What is causing the problem I am having? How do I get this corrected?

I have downloaded and reinstalled the PC Suite software. Although it is not working as well as it should, as long as I have my cell phone on with Bluetooth enabled prior to clicking on the icon to open the application, it seems to work OK. Otherwise, when it opens, it just hangs and the only way you can close the program is to get into Task Manager and force it closed when its status is showing as "Not Responding". I also have found that just "closing" the PC Suite window does not close the application...you have to click on the option to "Exit the Application" otherwise you continue to have it in your system tray with a red X over the icon.

USB Connections on Windows Vista 32-bits edition

Hi. Since I installed Windows Vista 32 bits edition (don't ask me why, but when I used the 64 bits edition- which I uninstalled because some games didnt' work well- this didn't happen), I have this trouble.
I have a N80. When I use the USB Connection in PC Suite Mode, the Nokia PC Suite perfectly detects the phone, and Windows installs the drivers by downloading them from Windows Update, I know this because when the balloon in bottom right corner appears, it says "Installing new hardware software..." and if I click, the little windows apeears, and it says "Downloading from Windows Update".
The problem comes when it finishes installing it. Windows says that there was an error when installing new devices, the error code is 28, and the legend is:
The name is already used as a service name or as a display name of some service.
Or something like that, I have Windows in spanish and I tried to translate it. And the Nokia PC Suite never displays "Nokia N80 connected via USB", always remain as "No connected phones". This doesn't happens if I use the bluetooth mode, but I need the USB because I want to check if firmware updates are avaliable and other things.
I tried in differents USB ports with the same results.
Has anybody had a similar experience or any idea? Or maybe is this a known issue? (obviusly known by everybody but me, ...)

- Ihave the exact same problem as you do and so far have not found a solution to the problem. Everytime I check the post board I see more and more have viewed your post but no one else seems to have an answer for you either. I e-mailed tech support and answer I got was no help what so ever to me. So posting a comment to your question in hopes of getting someone's attention that maybe can help us both. Who knows maybe Creative might even respond to us.

Nvidia GeoForce Go 7600 graphics driver and IQ770 with Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit edition

I have been having problems with my screen for several months now: every so often, for no apparent reason, it loses some of the pixels. I can still read the items on the screen, but the resolution is trashed. It happens intermittently and then goes back to normal. I have tried uninstalling the graphics driver and letting the computer go find it on a reboot. This does not work. I have also tried installing the original graphics driver. This does not work either.
If I look in the "Problem Reports" area in Control Panel, there is a graphics related error:
Error Message: STOP 0x000000EA THREAD_STUCK_IN_DEVICE_DRIVER (Q293078) The resolution listed is to reinstall the device driver (which I've tried dozens of times without success) or to change the computer's performance settings, which also does nothing. I still get the occasional loss of screen clarity which returns to normal all by itself.
Is anyone else seeing this problem? Does anyone have a resolution?
I have tried the latest graphics driver available on the hp website, from 8-2008 as well as the originally installed version from January 2007. The version of Windows is Vista Home Premium 32 bit edition, Service Pack 1.
If I completely uninstall the graphics driver, and do not reload any, the screen performance is fine, but then there are other problems, such as graphics acceleration.
Thanks for your help.

Windows xp 64-bit edition

I tried to install windows XP 64-bit edition beta. I downloaded this directly from microsoft (the flyer that came with the motherboard lead me no where to a link to download it). Unfortunately, the drivers that came with the raid controller are not 64bit compatiblee. I wanted to know how I would go about getting this installed properly (because XP 64-bit detects a mirrored array as two separate drives and will not boot).
What are the differences between 64-bit and 32-bit windows? will other programs not run correctly on it? Games? all that stuff? Comments? Any threads on this already?

What are the differences between 64-bit and 32-bit windows? 32bits
will other programs not run correctly on it? Yes and No ,32bits apps is emulated
and will run slower than on a win32bits , apps written and optimized for win64bits will run 20-30% faster.
Games? 32bits games (as all are today)will run with emulation helped by win64's WOW64 , and will run slower than on win32bits.
Comments? It's beta , and you can play with it to get the feel for it , but
unless you have 64bits driver for all your hw , your win64 installation
will be a bit stumped , afaik printers/scanners etc is hard to get any beta 64bits driver for . I tried writing to canon but they just blew me off , directing
me to their donload site where there is only 32bit drivers.
any threads on this already? yes, use the search button .

Problem with Oracle 11g(32 bit) installation on windows 7 ultimate edition

Hello all,
I have a problem with Oracle 11g(32 bit) installation on windows 7 ultimate edition (32 bit).
I have successfully installed it immediately after OS installation. But today, i have decided to deinstall it and go for Oracle 10g version for 32 bit.
Everything went normal during installation, but i can see the services is not present in services.msc. Also its throwing some exception for dbca, netca
Now i tried to deinstall it and again go for 11g. But even the same story here..
Can anybody give me a solution for this..
-Regards
Rajesh Menon

SaqibNo need to install a fresh OS. That's like tearing your house down just because you wired a lamp wrong and blew a circuit breaker.
There are MeaLink notes on how to eradicate an Oracle install from Windows, but it boils down to this:
Stop all Oracle services
In the registery:
- Delete all oracle services from the register (HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet
- Delete the entire Oralce folder from HKLM\Software
reboot
Delete the ORACLE_HOME directory and any other Oracle related directories/files. Offhand, it seems like there is an Oracle directory under Program Files.
reboot

There is no version of iTunes that truly supports the 64-bit version of Windows XP and never will be. If you search this forum for "XP 64" or do a web search for something like "iTunes Windows XP 64", you'll find threads describing the process some people have used to "crowbar" iTunes onto XP 64, with varying levels of success, none of them complete.

Today at GamePC, we're taking a look at the latest build of Windows XP 64-bit Edition, along with performance testing with AMD's Opteron and Intel's "Nocona" Xeon CPU's to see how the OS is shaping up. We're also comparing performance between today's Windows XP w/ SP2 (32-bit) against the upcoming Windows XP Professional X64 Edition release.

ITunes for Windows XP Pro 64-bit edition?

When I joined the ranks of iPhone 3G owners @ 2 months ago, I was a bit disconcerted to see that iTunes wouldn't work with Windows XP Pro 64 bit edition. (Which is what is running on my primary PC). You Apple guys should know why I DON'T want to upgrade the machine to Vista! (It's running nice & stable on XP-Pro 64-bit). I've been able to sync the iPhone (& update it's software) using my girlfriend's PC (running 32-bit XP Home), but since she's none too careful about stuff like antivirus protection & adware, her machine's buggier than a roach motel! (Really needs to be re-imaged). Could I use the Vista 64-bit version of iTunes on my PC? REALLY rather use it than her machine! Thanks! Tom

Forms and Reports 6i on a Windows 7 Enterprise Edition 32 Bit.

Hello,
I am trying to install oracle forms & reports 6i on a Windows 7 machine. Windows 7 Enterprise Edition 332 Bit
Kindly guide me if Oracle certifies Forms and Reports 6i on Windows 7 machine.
Please also tell me any link where I can find genuine documentation for this as we need to make a decision.
Regards

I'd go and have a hunt around here http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/htdocs/10gR2/clientsod_forms10gR2.html
You'll see this is to do with 10gR2 - I don't know whether you'll find anything on 6i as I don't think it's supported anymore.
Oracle are never going to develop 6i as it's now 3 versions behind : 11g 10g 9i 6i ....
Metalink would be the place to look.
