Cannot burn a dual layer dvd
by Guest phat28vr6- 9 replies
- 491 views
Ive tried using Nero 7 and windows (vista ultimate x64), the disc is ejected without attempting a burn and an error message appears "unable to burn the project". The dvd properties do show a 8GB disc in the drive and device manager says its working properly. Other than this problem it has worked fine. Its an LG GSA 4163B super multi re writer, the firmware is up to date, windows is up to date and has no updates for this problem. The discs are Infiniti 8x dual layer +r. Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated thanks

Dual boot Vista & XP
by Guest Sam Crawford- 6 replies
- 431 views
I'm trying to figure out how to dual boot Vista and XP. I have XP Professional x64 on disk 0, partion 1 and Vista Ultimate x64 on disk 1, partion 2. XP was installed first. After I installed Vista, it shows both Vista and XP in Vista's boot menu. When I try to go to XP, I get the error message that "NTLDR is missing" and error code 0x0000225. I tried using EasyBCD to change options but still can never boot into XP. Vista sees the drive it is installed on as "D" and XP on drive "K". Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Sam Xposted to x64 and Vista newsgroups.

Anytime Upgrade
by Guest mhonzell- 2 replies
- 322 views
I originally installed Vista Home Premium 32-bit version as an upgrade to XP Pro SP2. Later, I chose to use Anytime Upgrade to move to Vista Ultimate. Now that things are settled (I suppose I needed more of a challenge,) I want to move to 64-bit version to make better use of the processors as the multimedia programs are finally moving in that direction. I ordered the 64-bit version of Vista Home Premium which is allowed for a very small fee which will replace my original upgrade. Can I also upgrade my Anytime Upgrade license to 64-bit? Thanks, Mark

XP Pro X64 & Shuttle PN18G Wireless LAN Kit
by Guest eric@rr.com- 8 replies
- 471 views
Installed the PN18, and have been unable to get it to work on a Shuttle ST20G5 XPC running XP x64sp2. I had pulled down 64 bit drivers for this a few months back from the shuttle site, and they installed without any problems. My router sees the PN18 MAC Addee, but the PN18 doesn't see the router. Router is less than 4 feet away, so signal isn't an issue. Anyone else had experience(s) with the PN18, would like to hear what you did to get it to work. Thanks, Eric

I've tried the /separate switch for using explorer.exe and it works well. Unfortunately, when opening or saving within some 64bit software the default explorer.exe seems to be used and it takes forever to navigate. How can I fix this? XP Pro x64. This has always happened on this computer, from day one.

Moving from XP64 Pro Evaluation version to OEM version
by Guest mahesh- 12 replies
- 610 views
All I downloaded the 120 day evaluation version of XP-64 Professional onto my workstation and have started using it for a while. In the mean time, after evaluation, I ordered an OEM version of XP-64 SP2 and now have the CD with me. What is the best way of moving from the evaluation version to the OEM version that I have bought? At the end of 120 day evaluation period, will the OS ask me to enter a new product-key and validate the XP-64 OEM version? Or do I have to do a new, clean install with the OEM version that I have bought? Thanks in advance.

Display problem
by Guest XS11E- 16 replies

I'm running Vista Ultimate 64bit and my video card is a nVidia GeForce 6200 LE. I installed Vista using the built in drivers but had continual problems with the monitor going black and then coming back on with a message that the display had stopped but recovered. It would do this, for example if I changed volume during a playback on WMP. The playback stopped, the screen went black and then came back on with the message, a few seconds later playback resumed. It got pretty annoying so I went to EVGA's site and downloaded the latest and greatest, now the display flickers badly or goes black as before but I don't get the message so the updated driver…

oh.exe on 64bit
by Guest Mike- 3 replies
- 320 views
Hi - First, if there is a better newsgroup for this question, please advise. When I run oh.exe on our IA64 system I get the following: C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Resource Kits\Tools>oh // // TIME: 2007-08-09 16:09 // MACHINE: P540 // BUILD: 3790 // OH version: built by: dnsrv_dev(v-smgum) // // OH2: Unable to query system object information. I have a feeling this is because the Windows Resource kit is not supported on 64 bit platforms. Are there any command line tools out there that can display handle information similar to oh.exe, that will run on 64 bit systems (IA64 in particular)? I have already tried MS/SysInternals handle.exe,…

"Windows Vista Capable"

PC buyers: 'Vista Capable' machines weren't Vista capable Judge calls for trial - By Cade Metz in San Francisco How misleading was Microsoft's "Windows Vista Capable" campaign? Misleading enough for a judge to approve a federal trial. On Tuesday, a federal judge ruled that two PC buyers, Dianne Kelley and Kenneth Hansen, can proceed with a lawsuit that accuses Microsoft of deliberately deceiving the public with the "Window Vista Capable" stickers it slapped on Windows XP machines in the run-up to Vista's January debut, InformationWeek reports. Microsoft had asked for a dismissal, but US District Judge Marsha Pechman of Seattle is happy to oversee an Octobe…

7E bluescreen when booting Vista x64 (with 4GB only)
by Guest Peter Haumer- 6 replies
- 430 views
Hi. I have a Dell XPS 710 that ran WinXP (32bit) so far with 4GB installed with no problems four 5 months. Have GForce 8, XFi SB, one SATA and one PATA drive. Got myself a second SATA hard disk drive to install Vista x64 that I want to use via dual boot. When booting from DVD I immediately got a "STOP: 0x0000007E" (plus four parameters, no additional lines below) blue screen. I removed 2GB and the install worked fine. Installed all Windows Updates and latest 64bit drivers that I could find for my configuration. Rebooted several times without any problems during that process. Then I placed the other 2GB memory back into my machine and the same blue s…

program files directories
by Guest wli2k2- 6 replies
- 422 views
I have Vista Business 64 bit. I noticed that there's a program files and a program files x86 directories on the hard disk. I have read that 64 bit software will be installed on the program files and 32 bit software will be installed on program files x86. My question is there really any difference except to group the 32 and 64 bit software together? Can I install a 32 bit software on the program files directory and vice versa? Will there be any probelms. Thanks.

Program Update Problems
by Guest Jerry- 6 replies
- 476 views
Hi. I've been successfully updating my x64 installation for over a year, but now I have a problem. I'm pretty sure it started when I was running Visual C# Express and clicked the Help|Updates menu. I got the "install activeX question that pops up from time-to-time so I didn't think much about it and proceeded. Anyway, after I did the scan I got an error that the scan couldn't be completed. That's when I noticed the 2004 copyright on the update program. So, my question is how do I get the latest "updater"? I've been hesitating doing a system restore since I've made some installs since (I didn't realize the main windows update wasn't going to work -…

The tweaks used by EasyBCD and VistaBootPro will no longer work. Carlos
