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 .

  • 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.

  • 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.
    Ian

    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.

    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 and Windows XP 64 bit edition

    I have iTunes v 6.0.4.2 running on my machine. I tried to install the latest version and am told it won't install on the 64 bit edition of XP. Why and what do I need to do to make it work?

    Sorry for lashing out, I know typed messages can easily be mis-interpreted. It seemed to me as though the response was intended to be like, "Hey stupid ...". And I get rather frustrated when people do that.
    I have the PowerMac Dual Processor G5 1000mhz FSB. I know that the iPod and iTunes are linked as software and hardware, but I was not aware that I could install the iTunes application from the website to my iPod. Do we know if it is planned for iTunes to work with the XP 64-bit platform? If not, is there anyway I can assist with the project to make it happen... I am part of the Apple Developer Connection.

  • How to install and use Flash Player with Windows 7 64-bit edition and Internet Explorer 8.

    1. Click the Start button.
    2. Search for Internet Explorer.
    3. Do not click on "Internet Explorer (64-bit)" or "Internet Explorer (No Add-ons).
    4. Click on "Internet Explorer."
    5. That will open Internet Explorer 8, 32-bit edition.
    6. Now you can download, install, and use Flash Player. (It is used automatically on websites that support it.)
    7. In the future, make sure you don't use Internet Explorer 64-bit edition. Delete any Internet Explorer shortcut icons that you were formally using. Make sure that any Internet Explorer icons that you now use, are opening the 32-bit edition. To see what edition you are using, click the question mark near the upper-right corner of a webpage and click "About Internet Explorer." If you don't see "64-bit" on the popup, that means you are using the 32-bit edition.

    If you can not see the moving sphere: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html
    Check the following:
    Enabling Flash Player in Internet Explorer 9
    ActiveX Filtering in Internet Explorer 9
    Also check this:
    In I.E.9, click Tools, click Internet options, click Security tab, ensure that the Internet security level is Medium-high.

  • ITunes on Windows XP 64 bit Edition?

    Does anyone have experience finding a version of iTunes for Windows XP 64 bit? I can only find it for Vista and Woindows 7 64 bit.

    This forum is for questions from those managing sites on iTunes U, Apple's service for colleges and universities to post educational material in the iTunes Store. You'll be most likely to get help with this issue if you ask in the general iTunes forums.
    Answering quickly, though, iTunes is not and never has been supported on Windows XP 64 (and almost certainly never will be). Some people have had various degrees of success "forcing" the Vista version of iTunes onto XP 64. Search the iTunes for windows forum for "X 64" and you should threads discussing the workarounds and problems that arise.
    Regards.

  • Installing on Window XP 64 bit edition

    Does anyone know if there is a version of itunes that will install on Windows XP x64 or if there are any plans of one being released anytime soon. I can no longer update my ipod.

    Well iTUnes doesn't support windows 64 http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301301
    I have heard people saying you can get it to run if you stick with iTUnes version 6.0.4 and quicktime version 6
    This is a user to user forum so we don't know when or if they will support WIn XP 64. I know the next version on windows, Windows vista, is going to come out in 32 and 64 and Microsoft plans over a year to drop 32 and only offer 64 vista, so based on that apple will have to make iTUnes run on vista 64 at some point. I don't know if apple will ever support XP 64 tho

  • Tutorial: Installing Windows XP 64-bit

    After the fairly crappy time I had installing the 64 bit version of Win XP on my computer and peicing together various bits of information contained in various threads on this board in order to make it work, I've decided that I'm going to attempt to write as complete a tutorial as possible detailing the install process from beginning to end in hopes that it helps prevent people from running into the same problems I did.  Anyways:
    Step 1 - Acquire a copy of Windows XP 64-bit
    Obviously you need a copy before you can install it, and you can get a free beta copy of Windows XP 64-bit Edition from here:
    http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/64bit/downloads/upgrade.asp
    You can either download the file (it's about 450 MB, though if you're on broadband your transfer will be over fairly quickly...microsoft.com servers always seem to offer excellent download speeds), or have physical CD's shipped to you.  Either way it doesn't cost anything, all you have to do is fill out their form, and they'll give you your stuff.
    Step 1a - Burn the .iso file to a CD
    This section is probably wholly unnecessary, but for the sake of completeness, I'll include it...
    If you had microsoft ship you a premade CD, skip this step.  However, if you downloaded your copy of Win XP 64, you'll need to burn the image file you downloaded to a CD before you can use it.  To do this, open your preferred burning software (I'd recommend using Nero), and select "Burn Image" (or the equivalent option for your software), and specify the .iso  file you downloaded as the image file to burn.  You should have your CD in a matter of minutes.
    Make certain that you note and record the CD-key contained in the e-mail microsoft sent you.  Writing this on the CD would be a good idea, as would printing out a copy of the e-mail.
    NOTE:  Do not burn the ISO file itself to a CD (i.e. create a new data CD and just drag the ISO file into the compilation window)...this will not work as it will put the file itself onto the disc, rather than the CD image contained within the ISO, which is what you want.
    Step 2 - Prepare your system
    Carefully preparing things before you attempt to install Windows XP 64 can save you a lot of headaches when install time actually comes.  
    First of all you want to make sure you have a seperate drive/partition to install Windows XP 64 onto (unless you're crazy enough to want a beta operating system to be your full-time OS...and I've seen Win XP 64 in action, and trust me, you do not want this just yet).  If you are using RAID make sure you are using the VIA controller and not the Promise controller as from what I've heard there are no 64-bit drivers out yet for the Promise RAID controller.  Also if you are using RAID, be sure to read the following thread, which details the process of putting the 64-bit RAID drivers onto a floppy disk, and follow the instructions carefully:
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?threadid=40859&sid=
    Next, download all applicable drivers you can and save them in a sensible place (like c:\win64drivers).  If the driver comes in an archive, be sure to pre-extract it as well (Win XP 64 does not come with native zip/rar support).  It's okay if you don't want to get/cannot find all the drivers you'll need for your system, but at the very least make sure you download and extract the 64-bit ethernet adapter driver appropriate to your setup (most likely the RealTek RTL8169/8110 drivers), otherwise you'll be without internet (which makes downloading additional driver and program files kind of difficult).  You may also want to pre-download the installation files for some of the more essential program, like Winzip and WinRAR.  The best place I found to find 64-bit drivers is located here:
    http://www.planetamd64.com/modules/mx_pafiledb/dload.php?sid=
    Step 3 - Configure your BIOS
    Certain BIOS settings can screw up the install process, causing it to lock up at certain points, so it's worth taking the time to make sure things are set properly.
    Anyways, reboot your computer and go to the BIOS setup area, and make sure that "USB Legacy Support" is disabled, and that "Cool'n'Quiet" support is enabled...this will help reduce the chances of your installer hanging.  I found that after my install had completed I was able to re-enable USB Legacy support and have everything still work fine, but your results may vary, and different BIOS versions may have different effects on the installer.  I installed with BIOS version 1.20.
    While you're here, check your Boot Order settings and make sure that your CD/DVD drive is listed before your HDD is, and then insert your Windows XP 64 CD into the drive.  Save your settings and exit.
    Step 4 - Installing Windows XP 64
    When the computer reboots from step 3, you should see a message that says "Press any key to boot from CD..," so locate the "any" key and press it, and the windows installer will load.
    If you've done everything mentioned in the above steps, your install process should hopefully be a painless one, free of the errors and random stupid crap that caused me to spend several hours doing something that shouldn't have taken more than 30 minutes.  Select your desired install path (being careful to make sure that you're not installing over your 32-bit Windows) and enter information as requested.  If you need access to your RAID array during the install process, then be sure to press F6 when it asks you, and load the driver off of the floppy disk you created.
    If all goes well with the install Windows XP 64 should boot, and you can go and install all those handy driver files and software programs that you prepared in Step 2, and get your ethernet adapter working, and so on.  Reboot your system after installing the updated drivers, and if windows successfully loads, then congratulations, your install was successful.
    NOTE:  Do not install the MSI LiveUpdate software from the CD, as I did this and when Windwos loaded I would get a message saying "The service is not started" and when I clicked "Ok" the system would spontaneously reboot.  Disabling the software fixed this problem.
    ...I think that's all.  Let me know if I've missed anything.

    a.  Click Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> System -> Hardware -> Device Manager
    b.  Go down to the "Other Devices" section (they'll have yellow ?'s)
    c.  Right click on the ethernet controller and click "Update Driver"
    d.  Click "Install from a list or specific location (Advanced)"
    e.  Click "Dont search.  I will choose the driver to install."
    f.  Double click the "Network Adapter" entry, and then click "Have Disk..."
    g.  Select the directory which you extracted the driver files to
    i.  You will get messages saying that Windows cannot verify that the driver matches your hardware, and that the driver is not WHQL certified.  Ignore these and click "Continue"/"Install Anyways" and your RealTek RTL8169/8110 ethernet adapter will spring to life
    after i have done this the pc just stops. and if i reboot it stops at the loading screen :/ can you tell me whats wrong i got a k8t neo serie card and windows 64 bit edition

  • Can't resolve .local address on Windows Vista 64 bit

    I have Windows Vista 64 bit edition and installed Bonjour 64 bit.
    From my Internet Explorer Bonjour toolbar, I can see my Bonjour device. However, when I try to connect to it, I get a DNS error.
    Any suggestions? I've tried disabling firewalls and antivirus.

    The problem appears to be in 32 bit programs. The 64 bit version of IE can resolve .local addresses, but 32 bit programs can't. I can map a network drive using the address as well.
    Oddly, my version of Safari can "see" the .local device and lists it, but it can't connect because it can't actually resolve the address.

  • PhotoShop CS5 with Windows 7 64 bits and/or Windows 7 32 bits

    Hello
    I just bought a new computer with an Intal QuadCore, 8 Gb of memory and Windows 7 - 64 bits edition    
    I plan to upgrade from a former Photoshop CS3 onWindows XP and it was a 32 bits edition         
    Is the Photoshop CS5 supported on BOTH Win 7 32 AND 64 bits ? Or are they different versions ?
    I plan to either have a dual boot Win 7 32 Bits  -    Win 7  64 bits or separate hard disk on racks, so I'll still be able to use 32 bits softwazre that don't run on 64bits
    But if PhotoShop CS5 comes in 2 versions, I need to decide which one I should buy
    Thanks for any help you vcan provide
    have a good day
    PS : Is the problem with PhotoShop CS5 running on AMD processors solved ?

    Windows 7 x64 is a separate build from Windows 7 32 bit.  Windows 7 Ultimate comes with BOTH.
    There isn't a separate package of Photoshop CS5 for 32 bit or 64 bit.  Photoshop (since CS4) installs both 32 bit and 64 bit software on a 64 bit Windows system, or only 32 bit software on a 32 bit Windows system.
    Photoshop CS5 is fine with every variant of Windows 7.
    Photoshop CS5 is reportedly fine with modern AMD processors, though I have only used Intel.
    The detailed system requirements are here:  http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/photoshop/systemreqs/
    My own (personal, subjective) opinion is that ATI (AMD) video interfaces are better than nVidia.
    Hope this answers your questions.

  • BI Publisher Tab not visible in Windows 2007 with Windows 7 64 bit Config

    Hi All,
    I was working with BI Publisher till last week in my system having windows 7 64 bit edition with Windows Word 2007 installed. When i started my work on Tuesday this week, i was not able to see the BI publisher Tab in the Word. But it's visible in Excel. I tried looking in to the forum and got solutions such as Enabling Macros, Enabling the Trust Access to VBA Project Model and Re installing Word and BI Publisher.I tried everything but still the issue is not resolved.
    I dont find any *.exd file present in my system to prevent the Add-Ins from displaying. I'm not sure what update had made the BI Publisher to be hidden. Please let me know if you any suggestion or workaround as my project is in critical state with strict deadlines.
    Thanks,
    Bala Maheshwaran

    If you cannot show the BI Publisher Macros in Word :
    1.     You have to uninstall the BI Publisher desktop
    2.     Install the BI Publisher as (Right-click on the "Command Prompt" item and select "Run as administrator".)
    3.     If you cannot show the BI Publisher macros and in word options show TBmenu as disable you have to do :
    4.     Click the Microsoft Office Button , click Word Options, and then click Add-Ins.
    5.     In the Add-ins box, identify the add-in that you want to enable and note the Add-in type located in the Type column.
    6.     Select the Add-in type in the Manage box and then click Go
    7.     Select the check box for the Add-in that you want enable and then click OK.
    8.     Close the word
    9.     Reopen the word , than appear the BI Publisher
