  Hello

  I seem to be having problems when you try to install a program on my Windows 7 that allows to launch on my Windows XP and Windows Vista. I used the tool to solve compatibility problems and selected these settings in the CONFIGURATION file, but nothing seems to work the error message I get is as follows:

  "This version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you are using. Check your computer's system information to see if you need a x 86 (32 bit) or x 64 (64-bit) version of the program, and then contact the software publisher. »

  Is it possible to set my computer to allow this program to run successfully? Any solution would be greatly useful.

  Hello Rdforbe,

  The problem is a software that was created for Windows 95, 98, and Windows XP has no way to work correctly with an operating system that didn't even exist when the software was written. However, the error message you get normally means that you have a 32-bit software that you are trying to install on a 64-bit system.

  To find out if your computer is running 32-bit Windows or 64-bit, follow these steps:
  System opened by clicking on the button start , by clicking on the Control Panel, click System.
  Under system, you can view the system type. This will describe if you have 32-bit or 64-bit.

  You can also try compatibility mode.

  If the program is not compatible, then you try to install and run the program in compatibility mode.

  Use the following steps:

  (1) right click on the program

  2) click Properties

  3) click on the Compatibility tab

  (4) select run this program in compatibility mode and select Windows Vista or other operating system, the program has been run successfully.

  Check out the link here: make sure to run older programs in this version of Windows

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/make-older-programs-run-in-this-version-of-Windows

  If you are running Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate version, install Windows Virtual PC and Windows XP mode (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/default.aspx) and run your software in Windows XP.

  If you run Windows 7 Home Premium, try VirtualBox (www.virtualbox.org) or VMware Player (www.vmware.com), or any other software virtualization part 3^rd and install a separate copy of Windows XP (family or professional edition) for this purpose. You can find the virtualization software free that will run on Windows 7 Home Premium.

  I hope this helps.

• Windows 7 crashes my profile, leaving me with the "default" profile. Even if I wipe my laptop and re-install.

  Hello

  First: I have two identical laptops purchased from Dell with the same hardware configuration - both delivered with Vista. I upgraded to W7 as soon as possible, and since then, one of the laptops does not load my profile several times.

  I use to work as a system administrator, so of course, at the beginning, I didn't much attention to the mistake thinking it was just an incident. I formatted the computer, reinstall W7 and, of course, the error occurred again - constantly even if I wiped it and re-install.

  What is happening is that the computer starts, I connect Windows crashes for the moment very loong and then all of a sudden he says "preparing your desktop". When that happens I know its load under the 'default user profile', it's 'welcome '.

  This error occurs about two to three times in about 7 days. But not all the time - it's like periods. I usually get through this by organizing the closure for 4 seconds, restart, and then, if I'm lucky, gets through my office.

  A few times that I had no chance - restart of 6 times in a row without luck somehow shows that the profile files are really damaged, and then I created a new migration profile all my old files. This process takes time - not simply copy my files but also the settings of my program.

  Last week, I deleted my user just to create a new one-8 it recharges without success.

  I looked in eventvwr.msc and found that everything begins with six fouls in a row. I don't really know what do - the error log says error but it seems not very well describe it.

  It goes like:

  1 error:

  Windows could not load the registry. This problem is often caused by insufficient security rights or insufficient memory.

  DETAIL - the process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
  for C:\Users\[my account] \ntuser.dat

  EVENT ID: 1508
  TIMESTAMP: 2010-12-30 10:03:46

  2nd error:

  Windows cannot load the locally stored profile. Possible causes of this error include insufficient security rights or a damaged local profile.

  DETAIL - the process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
  EVENTID: 1503
  TIMESTAMP: 2010-12-30 10:03:46

  3rd error:

  Windows has backed up this user's profile. Windows tries to use the backup profile the next time this user connects automatically.
  EVENTID: 1515
  TIMESTAMP: 2010-12-30 10:03:46

  error 4:

  Windows cannot find the local profile and connects you with a temporary profile. Changes to this profile will be lost when you log out.
  EVENT ID: 1511
  TIMESTAMP: 2010-12-30 10:03:46

  error 5 (a warning):

  Windows cannot copy file C:\Users\Default\NTUSER. DAT to the C:\Users\TEMP location. [Name]. 000\NTUSER. DAT my PC. This error can be caused by network problems or insufficient security rights.

  DETAIL - the process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
  EVENT ID: 1509
  TIMESTAMP: 10:03:47

  error 6:

  Windows cannot load the user's profile, but you have logged on with the default profile for the system.

  RETAIL - only part of a query ReadProcessMemory or WriteProcessMemory was completed.
  EVENTID: 1505
  TIMESTAMP: 2010-12-30 10:03:48

  I don't know what it is. I can only say that reinstall W7 does not help. And lately, after creating the new profile, W7 began to start the default new desktop computer.

  So my question is: can I fix? If its not repairable can at least save files like ntuser.dat to crush the ntuser.dat file damaged W7 start sleeping?

  On the comp: 3 GB RAM, Core Duo2. The computer is used only for navigation on the internet, written for my studies and other reports not _ none of the weird stuff and no games at all.

  Software properly written (as opposed to malware, viruses, and poorly written stuff) has similarly on day 1 after installation on 30 days. So you can go ahead with your driver and software installation as fast as you want, as long as you create a new file image at strategic points and keep notes dates when you installed this component.

  Given your experience, you will need to proceed cautiously with the automatic updates. First disable them, and then put the installation in Manual Mode so that you can install in small batches, again take notes.

  If you use Acronis image to create images, then you will need only half of space compared to the native tool. And if divide you your drive and put your personal files on the D: drive then you will not lose them during a restoration of the image.

  Be sure to keep your Windows Firewall active at all times and use a router. Make an Internet connection without a router (which is a hardware firewall) request in trouble. If you use a wireless network, make sure you use a WEP or WPA or MAC address screening encoding.

  Try the following.

  Download IDT Audio Installer on the link below and save it in your downloads folder.

  http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp59501-60000/sp59882.exe

  One time finished, open windows control panel, open Device Manager and open sound, video and game controllers.  Right click on the IDT device and select uninstall - also, you should get a command prompt to delete the current driver, check the box allow this and then proceed to uninstall.

  Then, download and reinstall the Chipset driver on the following link.

  Chipset Driver - Windows 8.

  After reinstalling, restart the laptop and let Windows load completely.  Open your download folder, right-click on the IDT Installer and select "Run as Administrator" to launch the installation.  When this has completed, restart the computer again before checking if the Beats Audio is now listed in the windows control panel.

• This protocol uses Agent to communicate with the Service

  Hello everyone, this is my first post in this forum and I want to shoot a question if someone could help me.
  
  I guessed that the communication between the api and the server at the time where the user will put api HQAPi = new HQApi (...) is with the http or https protocol, depends on the value introduced in the conf file.
  
  I would like to know what protocol uses agent to communicate with the service. I would like your ideas.
  
  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  Welcome to the forums!

  Could you clarify your question a bit more? Looking for agent-> server HQ communication or agent-> communication monitored service?

  If this is an agent-> HQ server then they communicate with each other using foam which is a specific HQ communication protocol.

  If he's an agent-> monitored service it depends on the service.
