Windows 8.1 32 bit installation over Windows 8.1 64 bit

Hello,
I have one 64 bit machine with Windows 8.1 64 bit installed.
To do some testing, I need to install Windows 8.1 32 bit OS on this machine. Steps which I am following:
1) Boot the system from 32 bit OS DVD from DVD drive.
2) Select Install button in place of Repair option.
3) Select "C:" as drive where to install new OS.
4) It gives me warning that it will delete all files from selected drive during installation.
5) After installation, when I go to Computer=>Properties then in SystemType it is still showing me Windows 8.1 64 bit OS.
6) It is creating one extra folder "Windows.old" on C: but all my previous files/folders are still present on C: after new installation also.
Can you please help me to install Windows 8.1 32 bit on a 64 bit machine (which has 64 bit Windows 8.1 already installed)?

WHICH IS THE BEST WINDOWS8.1 64 BITWITH64BIT INSTALLED OR 8.1 64 BIT WITH THE 32 BIT OS DVD AND WHAT IS THE NEW OS?
Hi,
Windows 8.1 64 bit and 32 bit has itself advantage. While, if RAM bigger than 4G, it would be better to use 64 bit OS.
According to OP's description, it's probably install 64 bit system by mistake.

  • Windows XP keeps starting installation over

    Hello. I am trying to install Windows XP (service pack 2) on my new MacBook Pro (10.6.4). I go through the procedure fine, but when the computer restarts, instead of continuing the setup and asking for a serial number, setup starts at the very beginning again, which takes me up to creating another partitition -- which I had already created. Not sure what to do about this, and I really need windows on the mac. Any help is greatly appreciated. I have searched the forums already... but maybe I missed it.

    Sounds like you might not be formatting the new partition +with Windows+ during the XP install.
    That would account for it not being able to boot into Windows XP when the install is complete.
    This image is from the 10.5.x Boot Camp manual (sorry for the size, it's the one I had handy)...

  • Client Server product installation over Windows Terminal Server

    Hi,
    Have anyone tried installing oracle based client/server applications over WTS? I have a specific requirement wherein my WAN is connected on low speed lines. I've tried this installation but the performance seems to degrade very badly. Can you suggest me a solution to this issue. Further I'm facing problems when trying to print on Local printers. Any ideas???
    Thank in advance
    vinod

    Please see http://otn.oracle.com/products/forms/htdocs/formsservicesfaq.html
    It's stated here that this kind of installation is not supported. You would need to post a question on the Forms Forum for more details.

  • CS6 installation over a network

    My organization has various users that use different Adobe products and we're encountering a problem installing CS6 for a new user.  We obtained the files download from our software vendor and placed the installation files on the machine  (windows 7 64-bit, Lenovo Thinkpad X230) locally in the folder listed in script below.  It says to run in quiet mode so we developed the following script to run from a batch file. 
    @Echo Off
    Echo installing Adobe X Pro
    msiexec.exe /i "C:\Adobe-CS6\AdobeMasterCollectionMSI\Exceptions\AcrobatProfessional10.0-EFG\AcroPro.msi " /quiet
    Echo Adobe Acrobat X Pro installation completed
    Pause
    Echo installing Adobe Master Collection CS6
    msiexec.exe /i "C:\Adobe-CS6\AdobeMasterCollectionMSI\Build\AdobeMasterCollectionMSI" /q
    Echo CS6 Master collectrion package Installation Completed
    pause
    We can get Acrobat to install, but the rest of CS6 just doesn't work.  Anyone have any suggestions?

    try this line:
    msiexec.exe /i "C:\Adobe-CS6\AdobeMasterCollectionMSI\Build\AdobeMasterCollection.msi" /quiet
    or
    msiexec.exe /i ~%dp0Adobe-CS6\AdobeMasterCollectionMSI\Build\AdobeMasterCollection.msi  /quiet

  • Trying to download cc installer over and over again and now the website link is down

    I've been trying over and over again to run CC installer for my trial, it made my computer crashed after it installed (I had to do a system restore to before it installed) then I ran all of my updates but as it begins to download it the program stops. If I run it as administrator I get a message saying it "failed to initialize". I deleted the program and made sure it wasn't installed but now when I try to re-download it from the website it says that they're having technical issues.
    my question is there anyone else seeing this message on their site about a technical issue?
    and what can I do to try and get CC installer to initialize? I have windows 7 if that helps

    Forget the chat support. I am trying to install the CC Installer since 6 weeks. I had 18 emails going back and forth so far, I had 7 contacts to the chat support and I had two contacts with the local telephone support - The outcome is very easy to say: Adobe Support is simply totally incapable of helping me to resolve my problem. The CC installer is still not installed on my Mac which is why I will now cancel my subscription, look to get my money back because I was never able to use this Adobe crap, and I will move on to products that the Adobe competition has to offer, that are cheaper and easier to install. I was very pleased with the performance and the handling of Adobe Photoshop CS 4, 5 and 6 and Lightroom 3, 4 and 5, but hell, the Adobe Creative Cloud can kiss my *** since I cann't install it anyway..

  • Problem when installing a standalone installation over AIX

    Hello for everyone.
    I have performed successful standalone installations of BIP 10.1.3.4.1 on Windows and Linux enterprise systems in silent mode. But in AIX I have difficults!!
    System administrator has created to me an user called "bip" with reading, writing and executing permissions. I want to install BIP by using this user; the process begins well but the following error is appearing to me:
    "You do not have the necessary permissions to write to the inventory at /oracle/oraInventory. Please make sure that you have the appropriate permissions to perform the installation.
    Error:*** Alert: You do not have the necessary permissions to write to the inventory at /oracle/oraInventory. Please make sure that you have the appropriate permissions to perform the installation. *** "
    I remembered the installations I have performed in others OS, and I remember despite users have not permissions to access the /oracle/oraInventory folder, the installations were performed well.
    Is there any bug when you try to install on AIX?
    Thanks for your help

    I would recommend to open an SR with oracle support

  • USB Printer installation over USR9108 WiFi BaseStation

    Hello
    I own now for a couple of days the US Robotics 9108 ADSL Wireless Router with an USB Network Port for PrinterSharing.
    The Router is much better then the 9106 (Signal) but I have problem to connect a printer to the 9106. I own a Canon iP5000 with USB. The connection to the router is OK and gives no Error.
    The Problem is that I have no result to add the printer at the IPP and configure it.
    Describe is only the windows part
    1. Windows XP users: Click Windows Start and then Printers and Faxes. Windows 2000, Me, and 98 users: Click Windows Start, Settings, and then Printers.
    2. Click Add Printer and the Add Printer Wizard launches. Click Next.
    3. Select Network printer and click Next.
    4. Select Connect to a printer on the Internet... Under Printer location, enter the following.
    http://192.168.1.1:1631/printers/printer_name
    If you have changed the gateway's IP address, replace 192.168.1.1 with the changed address. For the printer_name part, use the name you entered in Printer name on the Print Server page shown above. This name is case-sensitive, and it must exactly match the Printer name on the Print Server page.
    5. You will be prompted to choose the brand and model of your printer. You can either select them from the list or click Have Disk, then insert the CD-ROM that came with your printer, and navigate to your CD-ROM drive to locate the drivers. When you are finished, click Next.
    6. When prompted, select Yes or No to set this printer as your default printer. If prompted, you can print a test page.
    7. You will be shown the information regarding your printer. Click Finish to complete the setup process.
    Who helps me to add the Printer in my Mac
    Regards

    It's funny but I have found the same thing as you. Whenever I help my wife with her Windows machine things look convoluted and unnecessarily complicated when I compare them to Linux.
    At times I think that may be I've gotten so used to the Unix ways that Windows seems "out of touch" or may be Linux has progressed so much since I started using it (RedHat 6.0 I think) that all those things are almost plug-and-play now.

    I faced similar issue sometime back with Weblogic.
    Here's how I resolved that -
    Using weblogic admin console verify that OIMAuthenticator is present in weblogic Authentication Providers under Security Realms - >myrealms->Providers
    Also check that Control Flag in DefaultAuthenticator is set to "SUFFICIENT". In my case after the installation it was still set to "REQUIRED".

    During OBIEE 11g installation we are required to cofigure connection string to DB.
    We installled Oracle Express (XE) on the same machine with default settings.
    What should be the connection string in the DB details form?
    Whether and if so, how should we configure the service in XE?

    Port is usually 1521. DB Service name is the DB name that you assigned to your DB.

    We are working for a project in the university, and basically we want to install Oracle over Linux, and develop some web applications. Before we start this project, I would like to learn which Oracle(8i or 9i) and Linux (Red Hat or Mandrake) versions would work fine and perfectly together. Since this project will be time consuming, I would rather take a right decision before we get into details.
    I would be glad if anybody share that kind of experience,

  • Trojan installation over trusted Midlet suite?

    hello,
    imagine i've signed my jar and is installed with no problem. Could a malign Midlet, which claims to be part of the original Midlet Suite be installed over the trusted one? I mean, the malign midlet has no MIDlet-Jar-RSA-SHA1 property in its JAD, so according with MIDP2.0 specification:
    "When an MIDlet suite is downloaded, the device MUST check if authentication is required. If the attribute MIDlet-Jar-RSA-SHA1 is present in he application descriptor then the JAR MUST be authenticated by verifying the signer certificates and JAR signature as below.
    Application descriptors without the MIDlet-Jar-RSA-SHA1 attribute are not authenticated but are installed and invoked as untrusted MIDlet suites."
    So, could that second midlet be installed, even as an Untrusted one?
    This second one, could read the shared RMS storage of the host Midlet Suite.
    thanks.

  • Are X-F1 new drivers installable over beta

    Installed the 5/30/06 Betas that said they were good until September 06 when they safely could be replaced. The new driver set including the beta changes is now available. Is there any problem installing these new drivers over the Betas??Message Edited by dogin on 08-02-2006 06:35 AM

    Well I took the plunge last night and reverted my system back from SP1.  Uninstalled the drivers and software and then reinstalled them with no SP1 installed.  And still no WinDVR working. :
    [ranrt]
    I do think however anyone who is having issues with the winDVR software and XP SP1 should send MSI tech support an email because I think it is unlikely they have the time to surf the forum for complaints.  So if we want to get anything done about the SP1 issues, we're going to need to send them emails.  But please send professional civil emails, if they get bombarded with angry swearing emails I think they're not going to be in a real big hurry to fix things.
