32-bit vs 64-bit processors, and recommendations for the new computer operating systems

This message can be duplicated... because I posted in laptop - forum.

I'm in the market for a new desktop computer and want to do a lot of video editing (using Roxio and Vegas Movie Studio).  I want to know the specifications to ask.  I need to know if it is better to get a 64-bit operating system processor AND... OR... a 64-bit processor and a 32-bit processor or should I just stick with 32-bit systems?   I'm afraid that my drivers and existing software may not be not compatible with 64-bit processors.  I want a system that will be able to also change the HD videos.

Any help with explanations would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Hi lcdrdan,

I use a HP Elite d5000t with Vista 64 bit and I have Vegas Studio 9 installed and it works great. The specifications of the box didn't say it works with Vista 64-bit, but it does.

  • I'm looking to get a new computer.  Where should I start or how can I do to get all my current products, plugins and software on the new computer?  I currently have 5 Lightroom and CS 5.

    I am looking to update my computer in the next few weeks and was wondering how to make the transition of all software (CS5 and LR), plugins and Setup on the new computer.  I have specific plugins that I bought for PS and Magic Bullet Looks for AE.  I was also wondering what I have to do with LR.  I almost 750Go of media on a raid drive on what will be the old computer.  The majority of my media is stored on a disk external segate so that used that big of a problem.  What I was going to do with your old computer is to add a few extra hard drives searched the home and do a system drive.

    Where should I start and what other issues should I have?

    Thanks in advance!

    A lot of times depends on what operating system you are using (Windows, OSX etc.) and if you want to keep all your data from your old computer or only parts of adobe.

    The perfect way to do it would be to do what we called a metal backup naked using software such as shadow protect and then install the image it creates on your new system. With this method you keep everything and just change material making sure all your settings are always the same and be able to continue as if you had not changed the whole computer. The only difference you'd see is a strong increase in speed.

  • Serial number does not work after the transfer of OSX and apps for the new Macbook Pro

    My serial number does not work after the transfer of applications and OS X for my new Mac.  Although the Adobe specifications say it is compatible with the older OS X, it does not seem to have no compatibility issues because

    -My old Macbook Pro has Yosemite and was fully running CS5 Web premium without a problem.

    -My new computer has the same * exact * OS X transferred in which the suite was fully functional with the trial.

    A support of top-level, software engineer, or someone who takes care of the soap operas could

    -Please provide a number of test series to test with?

    - And/or activate my series?

    - Or show how to disable the publication series on the old disk hard if I can't use the old computer?  So that I can use with the new computer?

    I chatted with technical support that keeps saying that it's a compatibility problem, to install with old OS X or buy a newer version. But I know that CS5 works with Yosemite (as I use it myself), and the only question I had is that serial # says invalid, which is separate from the functionality of the program.

    I'd rather not spend hundreds more to get a new suite, when I spent a lot for CS5 already and know is fully functional on Yosemite.  I have also not return to an older operating system and break things.

    Moreover, I used to be a general technical Support and I am a coder of web applications, so I understand that this isn't just some sort of "reboot" of the question

    No info to solve this, or a means to achieve at the highest level Tech support, would be greatly appreciated!

    Thank you!

    Transferred apps will certainly question of activation, because licenses files creation is completely dependent on machine, it willl created according to the particular Machine ID, if you transfer the application from one computer to another, there is incompatibility.

    Therefore, it is very necessary that you are using the original installation media.

    Download the CS5 products

    If you do not agree with the process of removing and reinstalling, try wiping the contents of SLCache and rename the SLStore folder.


    WARNING: Do not forget once erase you the contents of this folder, all Adobe applications will ask the new license or re-enter the serial number.

    It is strictly recommended to install Adobe applications using the original installation media.

  • need of five advantages and disadvantages of the windows 2000 operating system

    I'm looking for five the advantages and disadvantages of windows 2000 for my children ok operating system

    I can't get to five of each, but...

    Windows 2000 has been designed more as an OS company than a House, so should be the characteristics that probably would not need a home user. Plus it's really, REALLY old that dare go, and there is no support for it (end of July 2010). There is not much more for new audio and video devices driver support. It is not really designed for the game, if that's what they have to.

    You do not mention their age and what level of expertise they have. Don't forget that with EOS, there is no update security more released for it.

  • Detail of computer Vista Business 32 lost in hurricane. How can I reinstall and activate Vista to the new computer and use the backup image to restore files and programs on the new computer?

    Home built computer with Vista installed detail. I always have backups who intend to reinstall on the machine even if the HDD or MB went bad. Full image backup was on the hard drive of withdrawal which do not damaged. Never planned to lose computer any wave of sandstorm. I reinstalled on the same computer successfully before but never tried to migrate to a new computer.  Cannot uninstall Vista from your old computer, because it was submerged in salt water and died. I am not very well informed, but I can follow directions.  Thank you.

    You don't have to worry about uninstall on the destroyed computer, because it is not usable.

    And no message is sent when you uninstall any computer anyway.

    When you perform the Activation on the new computer, if you have problems of activation to the phone option I have included and do not take the road to auto answer, but brace yourself for a real person to talk to you.

After installation of the new card in the PCI express and turn on the machine, does not start, screen goes black and the fans to run at top speed. The card and the machine starts fine with the ATI radeon 200 exprees edge. I went into Device Manager and disabled the ATI radeon 200 adapter, and the system still wouldn't start with the new card. Went into the Bios at startup and changed the setting of the adapter PCI E, the slot where I put the card, and still won't work, even with the Bios and Device Manager changes I made.

    New card right out of the box, could be bad, or perhaps not compatible with my system? If is not compatible, what would you recommend? Currently I am running windows XP SP3 and am looking for a card that can be upgraded to Windows 7 64-bit. I know that the ATI integrated graphics card cannot be upgraded, so I'd appreciate some advice really.

    Thank you.

  • Steps to upgrade to 4 Fusion and moving to the new computer

    Hey there. I could use some help with few steps so that I have if sure and get everything set up on my new computer, because I get conflicting information from friends of Apple.

    Currently I am running Fusion 3.1.1 on a late 2009 MacBook Pro with Snow Leopard. I have a virtual machine running a single stand-alone version of Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit and a bunch of programs installed in Windows. I installed Fusion and Windows at the same time of the disks.

    I now move to a brand new MacBook Pro with Lion already installed. And I bought 4 Fusion on disk.

    My question is, which perform the steps I should follow to get Fusion 4/Windows 7 on my new MacBook Pro? I have to reinstall Windows on the new machine? Or can I somehow copied it to the Virtual Machine and have all come up with it?

    I'm a bit technical, but the new to all this stuff with.

    What I have read, I understand that I have to install Fusion and then copy the virtual machine over the old computer. Is this copy the complete Windows installation without that there is a problem with the registration number?

    Any help I can get will be more appreciated.

    Thank you! Linda

    From what I've read, I understand that I need to install Fusion and then copy the virtual machine over from the old computer. Does this copy the full Windows install without there being a problem with the registration number?
    

    Yes, it's exactly what you need to do. The exception is if you had installed Windows on a Boot Camp partition, you will not be able to copy on the virtual machine (since the data are on a separate partition and not in an easily copied file). For more security, keep your old configuration until you're sure the new works.

    Windows can decide whether he wants to reactivate, according to many variables that he considers. It is impossible to say whether it will be or not until you try. However, even if it does, it should be unique and should not be too much of a hassle.

  • Should what type of processor I expect in the new computer?

    When buying a new computer, a salesman told me that a computer with a processor i5 would be too slow to work with Captivate and think I would need an i7.  Does anyone have experience with this?

    Thank you.

    There are factors much more than just the processor. Personally I prefer i5 i7, but some users have same i3. Captivate is greedy memory, RAM is important as well. It is also heavy on the graphics, if possible get a dedicated graphics card (NVidia works well with other Adobe applications). If your budget allows, please have an SSD for applications at least, it starts quickly. Last question: you used to have open several applications at the same time? I have always Photoshop and open with Captivate (sometimes also Illustrator) Audition

  • How can I import my old passwords of key3.db key3 and files for the new firefox signons.sqlite 41.0?

    I recently updated my PC and my old hard drive in system is placed as a slave in my new PC. Seen key3 and signons.sqlite key3.db files of the old firefox, how to import passwords saved in the new firefox 41.0?

    Thank you.

    How old was the older Firefox? Firefox 33 and then use this pair of files:

    • logins. JSON -. saved passwords.
    • signons3.txt - this file stores your database key for your passwords.

    If you want to move the old in your current profile (to replace new empty files for the most part), this is the fastest way to open your folder of the currently active profile. Either:

    • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > troubleshooting information
    • (menu bar) Help > troubleshooting information
    • type or paste everything: in the address bar and press Enter

    In the first table of the page, click on the view file"" button. This should launch a new window that lists the various files and folders in Windows Explorer.

    Leave this window open, switch back to Firefox and output, either:

    • "3-bar" menu button > button "power".
    • (menu bar) File > Exit

    Pause while Firefox finishing its cleanup, then rename logins.json to something like logins.old and key3db to something like key3.old.

    Now copy the old two files in this folder.

    Launch Firefox back up again. These connections are available?

  • Copy a project and media for the new hard drive

    Greetings,

    I have a very large project stored on an external hard drive and would like to copy the whole thing, including the original media linked to a new hard drive... because I'm afraid that my old one may cease to operate quickly. How can I go on the copy of my project to a new hard disc as well that all sounds, music and video are related?

    Thanks for your help.

    Hello.

    You can create a library of transfer in the user interface and move the top project. (It it will copy as you move it to a new drive)

    If you also move the media, it will break the links between the project and the media (audio and video). When you do that, use the command create a link (on the file menu). If you point to the good volume, it should find the media and offer you the ability to link again.

    Good luck.
