T61 4 GB RAM on Windows Server 2008 64 bit problems
Hi, I just bought 2 * 2 GB Crucial PC5300 667 Mhz memory to upgrade my T61 that has 2 * 1 GB installed before. Hardware installation is smooth and easy, I followed all the steps in the maintenance manual. Then I restart the computer, BIOS can recognize that it has 4096MB ram installled. My operating system is Windows Server 2008 Enterprise 64-bit, which, unlike these 32-bit system, I am sure that it can handle more than 3 GB of memory. It is found in the system, and and showed there is 4 GB of memory, but in other programs like Everest, CPU - z, or Photoshop, even in the task manager all told me that there are only 2 GB of memory.
I was confused and thinking that it might be the Crucial problem of the new memory, then I install only a SINGLE memory of 2GB each time. They can enter the system and be recognized as 2 GB. So the new Crucial memories have no problem. Then I combined the old 1 GB memory and new 2 GB Crucial memory to boot. Windows can also recognize 3 GB ram but only 2 GB of it can be used.
It seems that 2 GB is the threshold of this system, any combination of greater than 2 GB can be recognized but cannot be used. However, it should not be like this since Windows Server 64-bit, theratically it can manage more than 512 GB of memory. That's happened? What should I do to remove this threshold? Windows problems? T61 problem.
BTW, I've updated the BIOS of the laptop to the latest version. 01/07/2008
This is the snapshot of the screen, my Windows is the Chinese version, but the crucial information is in English.

How dramatic is... It seems that I can use all 4 GB right now. I made a few changes and changes of the last
Boot, however I don't know that we are contributing to the problem.
During the last closure, I
(1) switched the 2 Crucial memory slot,
(2) put on the battery (it has been disconnected since the first time I changed the memory).
(3) disabled windows virtual memory (now my laptop only works on real RAM, Yes...)
something like this works now, thank you wjli2!

600 g MT: network driver for HP600B MT for Windows Server 2008 64 bit
I installed Windows Server 2008 on computer HP 600 g MT (product number - B5G17EA). But I'm not able to get the network (Ethernet) and graphics drivers for this OS. I even tried to download and install the drivers for Windows 7 and 8. But that did not help.
The HP site doesn't have any drivers for this desktop computer operating system:
http://h20565.www2.HP.com/hpsc/SWD/public/readIndex?sp4ts.Oid=5270873&lang=en&cc=us
Driver search for "Atheros AR8152 / 8158 PCI-E Fast Ethernet Controller (NDIS 6.20) also went in vain I couldn't locate for OS Windows Server 2008 (64-bit)."
Please help!
Hi Provost,
Thanks for the reply. I downloaded the Ethernet drivers from the following link:
And it worked perfectly for me. I had another system (HP 600 g MT). I went to the Device Manager and checked the name of the Ethernet adapter. It is Atheros AR8152 / 8158 PCI-E Fast Ethernet Controller (NDIS 6.20). Then I googled and found the link above was the driver.
The graphics driver from the link you provided, I always download it now. Would return as soon as possible about that.
Best regards

Oracle 10.1.0.4 on Windows Server 2008 64 bit Standard
Hello
For purposes of migratiion, we would need to install Oracle 10.1.4.0 on a Windows Server 2008 64 bit Standard and then update to 11 g.
We forced installation Oracle 10.2.0.4 on a Windows Server 2008 64-bit Standard, but we are not safe for 10.1.0.4.
Given that we do not have this version of the software to try it and we are looking for it, is it possible to install Oracle 10.1.4.0 on a Windows Server 2008 64 bit Standard?
Could you point me to a document referring to Oracle versions compatibility with Windows Server 2008?
Thank youAt MOS, click the Certificates tab, and then enter the database in the first menu drop-down and select the RDBMS. Then enter the relevant information in other blocks, and then you will see the database Oracle 10.1.0.4.0 is not certified for Microsoft Windows x 64 (64-bit) 2008 R2
Certification is a little stricter than the support, but extended support ended in January. REMINDER: First Support for Oracle Database 10.1 ends January 2009 [761713.1 ID]
There is always a lifetime support, but your case shows how useful that can be.

Unable to create a DSN in 64-bit on Windows Server 2008 64-bit SP2
I try to install vCenter server 4.1 on a Windows Server 2008 64 bit SP2. When I get to the step of the installation where it asks for the DSN, the Setup program cannot find the DSN I created and told me to create a 64-bit DSN. I use the ODBC data sources utility in administrative tools to create the DSN. I also tried to create the DSN with the ODBC utility available in the sysWOW64 directory. Creating DSN I only give myself only one possibility for a pilot:

With the 32 in the file name that looks like it is a 32-bit driver. Any ideas? Thank you
You can try to install the version SQL NATIVE drivers that ARE 64-bit. That could help.

I withdraw that. Looks like the Q8200 don't have VT - x. As such, it cannot run 64-bit guests. See KB 1901.

Windows Server 2008 64-bit indicates that Windows Vista 64-bit

I have my first Windows Server 2008 upwards and runs as a virtual machine, but when I install VMware Tools in the virtual machine guest OS password Windows Server 2008 64-bit for Windows Vista 64-bit in the guest in the VI Client operating system column.
If I check in the virtual machine properties dialog box of the operating system is always set correctly under Windows Server 2008 64-bit.
I'm running the virtual machine on ESX 3.5 Update 4 any ideas on why this is happening?
Best regards

Hi Jonas,.
As Troy mentioned, many of us have seen this "glitch"
I recommend you to try and return the Version in 'General options' for Vista 64 bit, apply, flip it to "Server 2008 64 bit", apply.
and see if that helps,
If not, perhaps that the relocation of the VMware tools help?
Or maybe delete VM from the inventory, then add it back (do not remove the disc if...!).

Tools on Windows Server 2008 64-bit VM
I try to install ot the VM Ware tools on an instance of Windows Server 2008 64-bit running on my iMac. It gives me the message while ensuring that the guest system is that it is loaded. Then it seems ot start installation, but it really is not dialogue or whatever it is telling me that is happening. Then he said only: cancel install, but never changes.
No problem on the instance of windows Server 2003 32-bit.
Selecing install tools in the menu just mounts the. ISO image to virtual CD drive of the virtual machine. Maybe the autorun is disabled on your virtual machine. Try to run Setup manually from Windows Explorer.
