Windows 7 RC and Display Question

I have successfully installed Win 7 64 bit on an early Mac Pro with Nvidia FX 4500 display adapter attached to acrylic 23 Cinema Display via Apple ADC-DVI adapter. Both the current Nvidia Win 7 64 drivers and those automatically installed during Win 7 setup failed to work except in safe mode as a generic VGA adapter. With regular boot up, the display remained black.
I downloaded from the Nvidia site an archived driver for Vista 64 bit dated 8/2008 that worked, recognizing a "PNP display." This driver file allowed use of the native Cinema Display resolution.
Does anyone know why the most recent and specific Win 7 drivers fail to work with my display and adapter???

Hi, Do you have a working solution for the Scanjet G4050 driver for use with Windows 7 (32 bit)?
This page indicates G4050 drivers are available from Windows Update and will be available for download from HP.

Bootcamp Windows 7 Sleep Display question?

Hey guys,
I have a 27" iMac running Boot Camp with both Mac OS X Mountain Lion and Windows 7 Ultimate.
When I'm in Windows, is there a way that I can turn off the display? Currently if I press the power button on the back of the machine it automatically shuts down Windows. Is there a way I can configure it so that it only turns off the display as opposed to the hard drive and everything else? Or is there another/better way of accomplishing this? Or any other way to turn off the display only?
Thanks!

I have same questions, but in Windows 8. And my timer for Dim and Display off are not functioning properly.

XFCE, window effects and other questions.

I really like XFCE mostly because it has what I need and it is really fast.
Anyway, first I have activated a few effects and that is to have my inactive windows transparent and all windows titlebar it all working good. But is there any way to exclude any window from the transparency stuff?
Another thing is that I have pidgin installed to use ICQ and MSN works nice, But is it posible to hide the "taskbutton" for pidgin on the task/window list that is normally at the top of the screen? And maybe also from alt+tab/middle-click menu.

I don't think there's any way to do it within Xfwm, but you could try devilspie. It's in [extra].

Windows 7 and drivers question

Like may people I have recently upgraded to Windows 7 64-bit from Vista 32-bit. When installing I used the optional update listed in Windows update?for Sound Blaster drivers, these were installed and the sound is working fine.
After a few days getting Windows 7 set up the way I wanted I decided to?find and install the extra?programs from Creative like Alchemy and the sound utilities. The problem is Creatives auto update is broken as posted on these forums?by a lot of other Sound Blaster users. My sound card was installed when I bought the card so I don't have the serial number or model number and I'm unwilling to take the machine apart to find these numbers.
My problem is that I'm sure my card is the PCI-Express Sound Blaster?X-Fi Xtreme Audio as the DVD installation disk I received with the computer shows a diagram of the card, I'm also pretty sure Vista Device Manager reported it as such. Windows 7 's Device Manager however reports it as just the Sound Blaster?X-Fi Xtreme Audio. While trying to find software and drivers manually on Creatives site there are separate drivers for these two cards, the PCI-Express one is version .0.4.0000 dated 30 June 09?and the other is .0.4.0090 dated 2 July 09. Neither of these drivers relate to the driver in Device Manager which Windows reports as version 6.0.0.209 dated 27 August 09. I tried installing the PCI-Express driver .0.4.0000 as they seemed to be the?appropriate drivers but windows reported them as older than the ones installed so I cancelled the installation.
Can anyone advise me on which is the right driver? There seem to be 3 different ones discounting the Beta ones on Creatives site. Creative auto update can't advise me as it's broken, I can't contact Creative directly because I don't have my serial number at hand, why don't they have a tool for checking serial numbers electronically? Non retail Sound Blaster owners have to strip their computers to find stickers on the circuit board as they didn't fit the card themselves!
Can someone also advise me if Alchemy and all?the sound utilities work with Windows 7 64-bit's when I select Windows 7 64-bit as the OS the download list removes everything but the drivers.

sorry for the questions, i did what u wrote but appear the same 5.

VMWare Fusion, Windows 7, and Display Resolution

When I am running Windows 7 in VMWare Fusion I cannot chose any of my Apple hardware. I do not see the 27" Cinema Display or the trackpad.
I installed the latest drivers fo Book Campt, but I cannot open the BC control panel in Windows. I get an error:
"An error occured when tring to access the Startup disk settings"
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

ExpressCard isn't supported in the BIOS as bootable, no.
Can you even boot Mac OS X off ExpressCard?
You could pull the internal SSD and upgrade to another model.

Upgrading to Windows 7 and other questions answered.

After reading a few posts around the forum, I decided to add a little to the discussions. First, if you bought a computer from HP and didnt qualify for an upgrade, and still want windows 7, your best bet is to go OEM. OEM software is the same as retail except you dont get all the fancy packaging etc.
and you get it at a steep discount as well, newegg is my first choice, and where I bought Vista when it came out. You will obviously need to back up
all your software and install from scratch (my choice as it lessens future hassles). Second is the driver/software issue, most drivers and software
should be covered when 7 is made available to the public (October 22) i cant vouch for how it works as I dont like the bloat that manufacturers add
when they put "their" software on a computer...so any help and experience others have had most likely can be found here. If you have a touchscreen
enabled computer, then 7 is your hook-up!...it has way better touch support then Vista ever did, just install your drivers and go!. To reiterate my first
point, it is better to back-up, re-format and reinstall from scratch than is is to upgrade, the system will be more responsive, have less clutter left
behind, and generally behave better than when you first bought it (simply because of the bloat that all that extra software is gone). Put your favorite
programs on and you should be go to go. If anyone needs help dont hesitate to ask me.

My favorite part is how you complain about bloatware but encourage people to buy OEM software.

OS9 sleep and display questions

I'm running Mac OS 9.2.2 on a Beige G3 All-In-One.
I often conduct downloads of large files on the computer (mostly transferring old software from my iDisk), and it seems a waste that there isn't an option to easily turn off the screen.
If I put the system into sleep mode, I assume this will halt the download and break the ethernet connection, right?
And is there a system option, extension, or perhaps a 3rd party app that will allow me to manually sleep the display?

Hi, mohaas05 -
Check in the Energy Saver control panel.
If you do not see three sliders, click the "Show Details" button at the bottom. Then set the System and Hard Disk sliders to "never", and leave the Monitor slider set to your normal setting, probably 5 or 10 minutes or so.
This will allow the monitor to sleep without sleeping the computer (CPU) or drive - they can still function even when the monitor is sleeping.
If your machine is on a network, you may also need to tweak the settings in the Advanced tab of Energy Saver.
This arrangement also means a much faster wakeup from sleep.
You can still sleep everything, by selecting Sleep from the Special menu.

X120e Sound and Display question...

Hey, I'm enjoying my x120e that I purchased earlier this year. I still love my T61 I purchased in 2008.
Couple of things though: the sound and screen.
Sound - does anyone else have hiccups with the sound where it makes a sort of long buzz through any playback for a time? If not, I need to mail in for servicing (unless I need to do a clean install or it's something I can fix).
The display is garish, and ultrabright. Has anyone had success with switching the panel to something else?
Thanks,
Erin

If the buzzing sound only happens after resuming from sleep, there was a bios update for it long time ago. Make sure you update to the latest BIOS.
As for the screen, yeah it's pretty bad for the viewing angles, there are several panels that are being used but I dont think you could request one specific part # to be replaced. I think It was a Samsung panel that was reported to be better than the LG. I had one with LG, and it was pretty crappy if not looking straight at it.

Hi!
I have a window inheritance and implementation question. I'm using
Forte 3.0.J.1.
I have a super (base) window with a PushButton on it. I want to
handle the Click event of the button in this super window therefore
I create an event handler.
<MyBtn> : PushButton
I create a sub window inheriting from the previous super window.
I put some data widgets on it and group all of them (the inherited
button as well) into a GridField. When I set the mapped type of the grid
the name of the inherited PushButton widget changes:
<MainGrid.MyBtn> : PushButton
When I run the application I get a SystemException with the
message:
Attempt to register an event on a NIL object (qqds_C_FieldWidget, 10).
Traceback:
SuperWindow.EH at line 0
SubWindow.Display at line 5
C++ Method(s)
UserApp.Run at offset 105
It is quite understandable that in runtime there is no widget called
<MyBtn>
and the event handler of the super class fails.
But what I don't know : after specifing a mapped type of a GridField why
changes
the name of those widgets that haven't got mapped type e.g.: PushButton,
PictureButton etc.
How to solve this situation?
I made a sall example which i send in attachment.
Thanks for any help and advice in advance...

Display Questions with Retina and VMware Fusion (Windows 7/8)

Looking to buy my first MacBook Pro and looking to make sure I get the specs I need and have a couple of questions.
I would like to be able to run (simultaenously)
During the day for work:
Windows 7 x64 - 30GB HD - 1 Core - 1GB Ram - Purpose: Has a VPN client that allows me to VPN and RDP only
Windows 8.1 x64 - 60GB HD - 2 Cores - 4GB+ Ram - Purpose: Office 2013 installed on this VM and all my other work applicatons (light weight)
OSX 10.10 - Whatever it can take - Light Web Browsing etc while at work.
After work:
Guess it doesn't matter really - i'd like to play games (bootcamp fine) if possible too. Nothing crazy so barely worth mentioning.
My main questions:
Display: Iris Pro or nVidia - Can the base 15 inch GPU/CPU handle the two VMs at the same time plus the host OS (OSX) without hiccups?
Display: How does VMware Fusion recognize the discrete GPU - will the system be smooth/quiet without activating it?
Battery life: Virtualization is pretty heavy battery wise. Does anyone know what happens to the battery when you're running a couple VMs?
Display: How is running Windows 7/8 on a MacBook with a specifically retina display? Do the Windows PCs look really ugly/blurry due to such a high resolution?
What is the minimum hardware required for these VMs to run fast and responsive? (CPU/GPU/RAM only)
Thanks!!

Sorry - we're users here, just like you, and some questions just get lost sometimes.
The fastest hardware you can buy, the easier you'll be able to run Windows. If you use Boot Camp to run Windows (7, 8 or 8.1) the machine will run at it's best. If you want to run Windows alongside the Mac OS, you'll need to use a VM application (I use Parallels - I've tried VMwareFusion but like Parallels better and it just works best for me).
So, to your questions:
The Retina machine with the NVIDIA GPU will be the fastest - it's a faster processor and has more VRAM.
Any VM is going to use resources - how much RAM, for example, is up to you. I have 16 GB of RAM and 8GB dedicated to Parallels/Windows 7 Pro.
I wouldn't (and you really can't) run a VM for very long on battery. If you're using VM's, that's the time to plug into mains. Running a 'couple' of VM would put further heavy use on your GPU, CPU and shorten your battery life.
I would make sure to get a good, fast quad-core i7 processor, the 2GB of VRAM NVIDIA GPU and the maximum amount of RAM (16GB).
Good luck,
Clinton

The best audience for applets is people off the internet. 'People off the internet' might be using a computer that has no (what was it?) 'open.html' in the root of the C: drive. In fact (shock horror) they may not even be running Windows, and would therefore probably have no 'C:' drive at all.
If you do not intend to distribute this to people off the web, an application makes a lot more sense, but even then, you cannot rely on the document being there unless you 'put it there' (during installation, for instance).
As the other poster intimated, applets can load documents off the local disk as long as they are trusted. Here is an example*, but note that it is not so rash as to presume any particular path or file, and instead leaves it to the user to choose the document to display.
* The short code can be seen at SDNShare on the [Defensive Loading of Trusted Applets|http://sdnshare.sun.com/view.jsp?id=2315] post.
On the other hand, a sandboxed applet can load any document coming from its own server via URL, or get showDocument(URL) to work. In that case, the JRE must recognize that the URL is from its own server, so the best way to form URLs for applet use is via the URL constructor
new URL(getDocumentBase(), "path/to/open.html");That is how I form the URL in this [ sandboxed example of formatting source|http://pscode.org/fmt/sbx.html?url=/jh%2FHelpSetter.java&col=2&fnt=2&tab=2&ln=0]. Of course, in this case the applet loads the document, then parses the text to draw the formatted version, but the point is that an URL produced this way will work with showDocument(URL).
I am pretty sure showDocument() in an applet off the internet will work with an URL pointing to a foreign (not its own) server, but it will not be able to load documents off the end user's local disks.
I suggest a couple of things.
- Try to express this problem in terms of what feature it is that you want to offer the end user. Your question jumps directly to a bad strategy for achieving ..who knows what? An example of a feature is "Shows the applet 'help' files on pressing F1".
- A good way to indicate interest in a solution is to offer [Duke stars|http://wikis.sun.com/display/SunForums/Duke+Stars+Program+Overview] to match that interest.
Edit 1:
..and please figure out how to use the CODE tags.

WRT 1900AC and Windows 7 network naming question(s)

Background: I had a Linksys E3000 up and running for about 5 years in a stable network environment. The E3000 died, and I put in a new WRT 1900AC to replace it. In the process of getting things set up correctly the main "network name" in my network displays shows up as a name assigned to a Wireless portion of my network. The "Wired" portion shows up in diagrams, and to windows, as well as both of the main wirless bands but not as the central node between either of the wired Win7 computers and the internet I would like to get the Windows 7 machines on my network to display the wired network name in Windows 7 as the primary network, and NOT one of the wireless ones. Almost everything I want to be able to do is working just fine except for the network map display in Windows 7 where I have been trying to configure a "home group" that will not yield to my efforts.,
I use "suffix" notation in the naming, so my router on ethernet is .<ame>..NET, the wireless lower band is <name>...W24 upper band is <name>...W5. I have not figured out how to get the artifacts of the "setup sequence of events" out of the Windows 7 displays in "network neighborhood" so I have a more rational picture that has Ethernet at the core and the wireless bands as additional subsidiary networks not necessarily associated with all my devices. I know this is not technicallly a Linksys issue, but... Can I simply delete alll the neworking information in Windows 7, and reboot, and then force the computer to set up a network based on the correct network node labels. provided by the router? I'm a bit worried that I might have to "reset" everything which would be a huge **bleep** since almost all of what I want to do is working just fine, I'm just not quite clear some times whether the process of connecting from one computer to another, or to a NAS attached to the router is going through the wired network or the wireless one where performance can be a big issue. My Ethernet is "certified" at 1gbps which is a lot faster than the wireless networking. Sometimes it seems that accessing the NAS attached to the router is being done "through a tiny straw, not the fast pipe in the wiered world. I used to do a lot of NETBIOS networking in Windows "back in the day" and my network naming conventions have probably not kept up with the times, but I still have two Windows XP computers wired into my household network, and when "debugging" things I think of the Ethernet as central and the wirless portions as additional networks, not the other way around. Unfortunately Windows 7 seemed to grab the wireless names first, probably because the machines in question both have wireless and wired connectivity built in and available in their hardware and the one that was set up and working with the old router when the new one got plugged in was used to do the initialization initially using the default sequence built into the router software. I was able to go back and rename everything to get rid of the default names, but my Android based network monitor only works within range of the router and not when the phone is connected to the internet outside of the house. I've never been able to get the phone support folks to help me clear that issue up either. .. When I added the second computer, the same thing happened out of the box, Windows took the name of the first wireless network it found and put it into the network neighborhood as the device in the path between the new computer and the internet, I can "see" the host name of the router correctly from everywhere, and map to the 1TB disk I have hung on it from all of my computers, but the Internet connection is actually an ethernet drop from a cable modem to an ethernet port on the router, not to either of the wireless bands that show up.

@zundapman Hi! What's the current firmware of your router? Make sure that your firmware is up to date with the latest version. Also, are you referring to the Windows explorer's map or the User Interface map of the router or the Network and sharing map of your computer?

Windows 7 and Apple Thunderbolt Display

I'm having difficulties getting the 27" Apple Thunderbolt to work reliably with my 13.3 MPPr using Win7 and Bootcamp. All the Bootcamp drivers are the latest, and the display works just fine using OSX 10.8. When booting into Win7, the external display is dark, but audio, USB, and ethernet seem to work just fine..just no video. Has anyone found a work around for this.. It's getting really frustrating.

Thunderbolt problems with Windows 8
TIP: Fix for Thunderbolt problem with Windows 8 in Boot Camp
Boot Camp users who updated Windows 7 to Windows 8 may find that a Mac booted with Windows 8 does not recognize Thunderbolt . According to a new Apple tech article, the problem is an incompatibility with the Windows 8 Fast Boot feature (also called Fast Startup). The workaround is to disable Fast Boot using the Windows Control Panel.
Here's how:
In Windows 8, open the Control Panel. (You can move the mouse to the upper-right corner to activate the Charms bar, click the Settings icon, and then select Control Panel.)
Select Hardware and Sound.
Under Power Options, choose Change What the Power Buttons Do.
Under Shutdown Settings, uncheck the Turn On Fast Startup. Checkbox.
Click Save and then restart the Mac back into Windows.
After restart, Windows 8 will recognize Thunderbolt devices attached to the Mac.
