I installed x64 in the same partition as XP. DUH... I was told if I have an AMD x2 cpu I needed x64. I can dual boot and found that that I don't want x64. Can I just delete the x64 related folders and files and make my system a single boot sys again??? The other OS is WinXP. If I do a sys restore to a point prior to loading x64, will that remove the x64 OS? This is my first visit here. OOPS wrong site Hope I'm in the right place this time..nope, wrong site Maybe this is the correct place.....

hello, i wanted to format and partition a new drive, but couldn't seem to find the disk admin panel anywhere (XP pro). MS' website said to run "compmgmt.msc" from the command line. oddly enough, this brings up an "install dialog", preparing to install Diskeeper Lite, which I already installed some time ago. I have to click many times to cancel the install process, and am considering nuking DK lite because of this headache and other screen nags, etc. my questions, how did DK lite "hijack" the Disk Managment console? can i get it back? any other place that I can run disk mgmt from rather than the arcane command prompt? thanks for any help ... …

I just installed finally Vista Ultimate 64. After several tries I did get it installed on a Tyan 2885 board with dual singlecore opterons to a raid 5 on a Highpoint 1820 card. I did a clean install with all other stuff removed even had to use a floppy to get vista to see raid 5 as c drive but that has been accomplished. After many tries. I had to remove all memory and start with one stick Corsair 3200 memory all are matche512 sticks. I have system running with 4 sticks 2 gigs, more it is funky, sorry about technical term. I did find 2 that would not work as a single stick. Others worked just fine. Now system works until I hit something that needs to chang…

Hello Anybody! Having nothing else to do :-) I tried to run the SFC /Scannow command on my wifes WinXPx64 PC. It didn't work. I got a msg. telling that I needed to insert the original install CD, (which was already in the DVD drive), and the process couldn't continue. I have been thinking of slipstreaming SP2 some day, and I thought that now was the right time to do it. I found a nice description, on how to perform the slipstream operation, here: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Create a Windows XP Professional x64 SP2 Slipstream CD http://www.start64.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&amp…

Hey gang, I run AVG 8 , free version, on my Vista Ultimate 64 bit. I thought I would ask here first, in case anyone else has run across this. Recently, the update manager has stopped working in it, for me. When I boot, the icon will just have a red mark in it, and when I open the program from the notifcation area, it states the update manager is not working. I basically have to manually update the program each day. I have tried different settings under advanced-tools-update manager, but none seem to change this behaviour. Thought I would check here for ideas first, would appreciate any feedback on this. Thanks, -- Don

My machine is running WinXPsp3. Everytime I logoff or shutdown, my antivirus programs "hangs". A menu appears-Symantec Antivirus-End Now and a progress bar runs across about half way before it logs off or begins shutdown. Not sure is this is a windows issue or service or software? Any suggestions?

MY SONS MACHINE AN hp A305w, running windows xp pro, was accidently unplugged, and now it wont start windows but goes to a screen which says do you want to start normally, or in safe mode, or with last known configuration that was good?

I have a client who currently has 2 servers in their organization. One is a SBS 2003 server that does all the jobs that SBS provides. The second server is a Server 2003 Std. box that is running Terminal Services and managing Terminal Server licensing. We have acquired a new Server 2008 box to replace the Terminal Server. I have purchased new 2008 TS user CALs for this server. My question is how to go about migrating Terminal Server Licensing from the 2003 server to the new 2008 server. If anyone can point me in the direction of some guidance on this subject, I would greatly appreciate it.
