Vista Ultimate 64 SP1 on ASUS M2A-VM with Athlon 64 X2 5200+, 2 GB memory (was 4 GB but finally had to remove 2 GB to prevent constant weird failures.) I inadvertently hit the "Sleep" button on my keyboard (I *K*N*O*W* I should have disabled it!) and had the usual problems getting the PC to awake, it did wake up but failed to install a USB Printer and also failed to install my mouse software so..... I rebooted and... had a bunch of grief, the machine just refused to boot. I got the little green indicator which would freeze, the screen went black and only power off worked. OK, BTDT before, I know how to fix it, boot into safe mode, open Device Man…

Dual Boot ??????? 1 2
by Guest MadMax75th- 37 replies

Hey, I recently added a second hard drive that had a fresh installation of XP32 installed. My first HD has XP64 installed. It only wants to boot the XP64 Drive. I was hoping to DUAL BOOT but when I go to BIOS I can't get it to let me change Drive Priority. I am supposed to use the "+"(PLUS) sign to raise or minus sign to lower priority but nothing happens! Is there a good program that I can install that will allow me to choose the HD I wish to boot to ? I have Partition Magic but it won't allow me to add a FAT32 partition on XP64, so I can add BOOT MAGIC. Thanks a lot for any help you may offer. Max PS- My XP64 is on an SATA DRIVE & the XP32 is on an IDE…

Installing Windows XP 32-bit over Windows XP 64-bit
by Guest piccolo- 8 replies

Somehow, I wound buying a Dell Precision workstation with Windows XP 64-bit installed on it only to discover that a LOT of my software is not 64-bit compatible and never will be. HP, Nikon, even Adobe don't appear to have functioning fixes for Windows XP 64-bit. So I am faced with having to buy an OEM version of Windows XP 32-bit and installing that if I want to use my existing software library. Never having installed an OS before, the prospect of installing Windows XP 32 scares me and I thought I would ask here for advice. 1. am I going to need special cables, etc. or will the thing load from the CD? 2. I presume I can get the necessary drivers eit…

I found this interesting piece of information while browsing http://www.start64.com "The Xerox Global Print Driver significantly reduces IT involvement and eliminates the need to download individual printer drivers for each product. This truly universal printer driver lets users print to virtually any printer or multifunction printer—even to those made by other manufacturers." The rest of the note and driver links can be found here: http://www.start64.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=2390&Itemid=1 Carlos

64 bit Vista Machine crashes
by Guest Mary- 3 replies

I have a 64 bit Vista computer. We are running Accuterm on this computer. When working in this application, the computer shuts down. I have run the computer diagnostics. Everything passed. We have been using this application on the computer for the last two months and it has not done this before. It started this several days ago. I am not sure how to proceed to fix this issue. Is this a conflict issue between the 65 bit machine and a very old application? Thanks, -- Mary Baldwin

I am plaining to purchase a brand new Dell T3400 PC which 100% compatible with 64-bit MS Vista OS. The hardware drivers are no worry. I worry if the regular software like MS office 2007 and DVD editing program like Roxio 10 will work under 64-bit OS without dedicate for 64-bit spec. Are anyone tried and works?

Start menu display of documents as a menu ceases to function properly on my new x64-based PC with Microsoft Vista Home Premium operating system. The capability of opening a document four or five layers of folders deep by navigating to it from the start menu and clicking on it ceases after opening one or two documents. In the failure mode the next layer of folders opens upon moving the cursor to Documents on the start menu, but no highlighting appears when the cursor is moved onto the newly displayed layer. Clicking on the layer without highlighting closes the entire start menu. Right clicking on Documents and selecting Explore still opens Windows Explo…
