The development of Windows 7
I am trying to determine if a move to a 64-bit Windows 7 environment could improve my development time. I used the SEARCH option on the forum and read the messages, but they all seem dated 2010/2011 and these messages are a bit scary! For what it's worth...
Development course:
Memory 2 giga Sony VAIO WIndows XP (max) 1.86 GIGHZ Pentium M (about 6 years)
Java 1.3.0 BB plugin
Targeting of the JRE 5.0.0
Feature: 9330
I use the 'hot - fix"code technigues and am able to avoid restarting Simulator (finally!) but I still spend a third of my day waiting for something (debugger setting, project, whatever). It's too inefficient and costly, that we charge our customers every hour!
Proposal for a new Machine: Sony VAIO series Z, 8GIG memory i7 Quad Core Windows 7 64 bit with all the bells/whistles.
I'm all for spending money (above is $2 +) on the latest hardware equipment provided:
1. it has a significant impact on the reduction of the above-mentioned waiting time. (On a 9 hour day, I spend a good 2.5 hours waiting on something. This corresponds to $250 / day or $1250 / week, I have to charge my clients to look at different progress bars, attaching debugger..., etc.! It is difficult to compete with that.
2. it does not introduce any new problems (some positions are a little scary when it comes to simulators and Eclipse).
Missions, it seems that the best way to develop on the 64-bit environments must run in a virtual XP environment. My concern there would be limits on the size of the memory, which is the machine a 8GIG but still only have to WHAT XP can answer? I could certainly live with the virtual environment, as long waiting times mentioned above are reduced and I have other new questions!
Is there additional information, for example a white paper, forums, discussions that are more recent or that I simply missed?
Thank you!
Sure.
I do not install under program (x 86) because on Win7, it is a protected directory and you will need to remember to run it in administrator mode or things like etc updates may fail. By default, he really wants to install in your home like c:\User\
Also make sure that you are using the 32-bit version of my Eclipse and a jre 32 bit as 64 JRE has some limitations. I have install the simulators in the default directory for example "Smartphone of C:\BlackBerry 7.1.0\7.1.0.98 simulators (9900) \9900.bat" and use the Blackberry Update site to install the jre BB etc. Do not use the XP mode for this, I have never found the need Use it throughout the day in this way. ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Do you mean the inspector or do you mean the developer toolbar?
The shortcut key for the Inspector is Ctrl + Shift + C, so make sure that you don't accidentally press the SHIFT key when you use Ctrl + C to copy the text to the Clipboard.

I loaded the preview of Windows 8 developer, how can I do a clean install of Windows 7?
I was stupid and has not implemented a partition on my HARD drive. I have to do a clean install of Windows 7, which is not too painful because my computer is new. But I can't seem to start from the disc. I changed the order in my BIOS but windows 8 charge even without even giving me a startup disk option.
Hello JordanLeavitt
Do not try to boot from the Windows 7 support. Instead of starting the Windows Developer Preview and then put in the disc of Windows 7. Run the Windows 7 Setup program and follow the installation process of Windows. I would like to know if it works for you. Thank you.
EDIT: You end up with a Window.old folder on your C: drive. It's the Windows Developer Preview. You can delete this folder.

Oops... .the everything in the title... My apologies!
Tips for Lightroom 6 help indicates again that if "using a graphics card AMD/ATI under Windows 64-bit with the AMD Catalyst driver 15.7 and Lightroom CC/Lightroom 6 hangs or crashes during launch or when you edit an image in the develop module.» This problem may occur when you use AMD Radeon HD 5xxx card graphics series 8xxx running versions of pilot 14.501.1003, 14.502.1014 and 15.200.1062.1004. For the Solution of the page install the AMD Catalyst 15.8 Beta Driver for Windows (posted August 31, 2015). However, there are now a 16.1 driver... would this work with Lightroom 6buttons Photpshop CC without problem or should I stay with 15.8 beta for Windows driver (Windows 8.1.
Thank you very much
Paul Winstone
Hi Paul,.
This article was created when users have faced problem with old drivers for AMD graphics card.
Yes, you can upgrade to the last 16.1 pilots and who should work well however, you should have 1 GB VRAM or more to take advantage of the GPU processors.
Kind regards

When you use the brush in the development module and I have a lot less brushes to create an image, the program hangs up to what I sometimes have to use windows to complete the task. I have ICC Intel i7 3.4 and 16 GB of RAM to operate Windows 7. Why hang up LR
Doing a lot of brushing up on an image using Lightroom is known to have this problem. The first thing to try is to turn off the graphics acceleration (go to Preferences/Performance tab and then uncheck the box here). IF this does not help, then you can consider doing your brush in Photoshop Elements or Photoshop, instead of brushing in Lightroom.

What is the original Lightroom hang up, mainly in the develop module? I've recently updated for Windows 10. I tried to reinstall LR, but it made no difference. I get no error message, just the blue spinning wheel.

The development of control Windows mouse pointer
Hello
Some time ago I followed quite unwisely someones suggestion to reset the home of Windows so that a window became active when the mouse pointer has moved into its frame without clicking. It was a big mistake, and I've not found a way to restore the normal state of windows. Can someone help me?
Thank you
Hi again,
Strange within minutes of my question, I accidentally hit on the answer! In the center of the "ease of access" Control Panel, under the heading "Make the mouse easier to use", there is an option "activate a window by hovering over it with a mouse. That's obviously what I had been advised to try, but had forgotten. Turn it off solved the problem!
Thanks for looking
