Vista Business 64-Bit with AutoCAD 2009 does not seem to use all 8 GB of RAM available.

A workstation newly built (S5000XVN Intel / Xeon / 8 GB RAM / 2 GB RAM video) with Windows Vista Business 64-bit is used with AutoCAD 2009 (64-bit).  The workstation hangs under stress, apparently because not enough RAM is available.  ("Stress" is "Turning entirely made of a certain complexity 3D drawings")

The Task Manager / Performance tab indicates never to use RAM above about 3.25 GB, even if ten or more concurrent applications are loaded, including IE 8 (6 graphically heavy windows) and AutoCAD with 6 or more complex drawings open at the same time.

There are two issues, I think:
1. in the event that a busy workstation indicate use RAM above the 32-old bit of 3.2 GB limit?
2 are there MS Windows Vista settings that are necessary to ensure the use of RAM available?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the reply.

I studied the installation of AutoCAD 2009.  It's actually the 64-bit version that is installed, and the Task Manager reports it as a 64-bit application when it runs.  (In other words, it is not marked as a 32 bit application.)

I must admit that I no longer believe that the machine is running out of resources or do not use all the resources available to it.  We tested the machine by throwing 18 complex, fully rendering the 3D drawings within the Academy, in addition to two cases of IE 8, three instances of Explorer Windows and MS Windows Mail.  Use of the RAM did climb, reaching finally the 4.06 GB, clearly indicating that the 32-bit 3.2 GB limit has been exceeded.  It seems that just drawings don't take up that much RAM.  BTW, there was no increase in the paging activity that I could see.

However, the application does not seem to be frozen or looping when the client attempted to turn one of the drawings.  The CPU on the two wires (Xeon processor) usage increased to 55% and remained there. the State of the process, as reported by the task manager went to "Not responding" and stayed there; and the display of the image froze on an empty workspace, with a three seconds flash drawing on every 20 seconds.

So: It now seems that there is a problem with AutoCAD, not a Vista problem.  I would appreciate comments, however, if you think that this analysis is wrong, incomplete or based on wrong assumptions.

Thanks for your help.

  • Vista Business - > Win 7 Home Premium upgrade does not work with my Win 7 Home Premium Upgrade disc

    I bought a Windows 7 upgrade for $99 at Dell when I bought a new computer Win 7 and am finally getting around to upgrading my Vista Business.  The reason for road upgrading rather than clean install was to avoid reinstalling all applications, a major, major time sink, even if I find all the drives in application.  Is the upgrade to Win 7 Home Premium.

    After starting the upgrade, he stopped, telling me that I can only switch to Win 7 Pro, Ultimate or enterprise. For the upgrade to proceed, told me that he needed a clean installation and that I would then have to re - install all the applications.  I looked on the Microsoft site, trying to find how to set my Windows 7 Pro upgrade disc, but I have been unable to find how this could be done after through many convolutions of web pages.

    Could someone tell me please how to put my Win 7 Home Premium Upgrade disk to a Windows 7 Pro upgrade disc?

    Thank you very kindly for any response.

    I guess it depends on what side of the coin of your on. If someone bought the Windows 7 Pro upgrade, whereas they would have only a single lane of evolution, which is the more common scenario.

  • Windows Vista 64-bit with readers that will not start after disabling all startup applications and registry changes

    My Vista 64-bit system ran like a dream - until I tried to install Roxio Creator 2010.  When the installation failed and hung up, I stopped the installation with the Task Manager and rebooted the pc.  Following the instructions of blog users of Roxio, I did the following:

    1. selected disable all startup using MSCONFIG and restarted the pc applications.

    2 download and run the Microsoft Windows Installer CleanUp.

    3 remove the partially installed Roxio files in the directory c:\Program Files x 86, then made an export of registry before editing the registry.

    4. under the leadership of the registry - deleted file folder HKEY_CURRENT_USER Software Roxio and has attempted to delete the Wow6432Node folder from the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE folder but encountered an error - didn't note it, unfortunately, but basically he said that he could not remove it when it has been changed, after waiting a while I tried to delete the folder Wow6432Node whe even once with the same answer, so I closed Regedit and restarted the pc.

    The pc goes through the process of startup and hangs when it tries to start Windows Vista.

    5. I can't do a repair with the Vista disk - files are not present.

    Hello Ajay K.

    Thank you very much for your detailed answer.

    I got no error message.  I backed up the registry, but was not able to start the pc, so was not able to restore the registry.

    I couldn't restore last good configuration known - the option was not yet present.

    When I tried to restore the operating system, he asked drivers before it would proceed.

    I have a floppy 1.44 with the raid drivers and after reloading of these drivers, I was able to reload Vista Ultimate.  Fortunately, all my data was recorded in a windows.old directory, and I'm back in business without losses.  Just had to reload all my software.  Do that...

    I think that my problem was caused by disabling all startup applications in msconfig - which resulted in my hard not recognized disk array.  This seems likely.

    You are awesome to provide an exceptional response.

  • Windows Vista Home Basic - problem with the icons does not meet various Windows services after trying to download updates

    I use Windows Vista Home Basic on a Dell Inspiron 1501.  I have recently accepted that some guest downloads Windows with terrible results.  First downloads do not appear to have been accepted and the system of guard stop and startup trying to cancel.  Second as I result, I seem to have lost access to a range of Windows tools.  For example in Panel I can't open system icons or Windows Update.  Nor can I access these services from any other avenue on the computer.  Whenever I have find an icon or a file screen flashes a dialog briefly and then disappears.  The effect of this is that I'm completely unable to access or to implement the recommended tools or services that could solve this problem.  My ability to manage my computer has been reduced to zero.  Dell were not receptive and I can't get a response from Microsoft

  • Button Delete does not seem to use branch to return to the page

    I've implemented a form of single update with several pages of report pointing to it. I did it using the base report / form option, the button create is therefore on the report link to the form with a button change to the form of update and delete. There is also a button cancel on the form.

    After having read the Forum, I put an article on the form to accept the page past the various pages of report number and redefine the unconditional branch on the value of button. This works well for create, update, and cancel. They all return to the original page beautifully.

    However, the button Delete a popup javascript standard asking for verification to delete. Appears, the record is deleted and I get treated action message, but I'm not at the original page - instead, I get an error "error ERR-1016 request '122' Page '0' not found (requested language =" en - us ")") which seems to say that it is not referencing the element of the back page. I know that the item has the correct value because it is currently not hidden to test.

    The branch point is on submit after treatment and pointing to a page of the application with the value of & P3_BRANCH_TO.

    If I replace the URL for the javascript popup in the button of deletion with the link to the article, I don't get the deletion at all. It just goes back to the original page. If the javascript code gives more than a popup.

    How can I work around this situation?

    TIA

    Gillian

    PS - this forum is great - it has been very useful for the beginner.

    Hi Gillian,

    The process of "reset page" is there to remove from the session, the values of all elements on the page. In most cases, it's ok because that's what you want to do. In some cases, however, this can cause problems. In your case, since your article P3_BRANCH_TO is on the same page, then it was also being allowed to go out with the rest of the data, so when management tried to read, the value was in fact null instead of a real page number.

    There are two things you could try, to make sure that you clear the values in session that you don't need, but keep those you do.

    1 - Place the items you wish to keep on another page, if possible or to create elements of the Application (via the shared components) and set these values instead. I'm doing this for my G_RETURN_PAGE point (which I think is similar to what you do with your P3_BRANCH_TO article) - I put this value on my basic pages (the pages that the user must come back after you perform an action) and then use & G_RETURN_PAGE. in the branch. As "reset page" don't erase data pages, any part of the application is not affected, will always be available.

    2. in your branch, you can set the value to itself. Thus, the parameter "Defining these elements" would be P3_BRANCH_TO and the 'with these values"would be & P3_BRANCH_TO.

  • SONY Memory Stick PRO-HG Duo MS-HX16A doesn't work in Vista Business 32-bit

    When I insert my memory stick Duo PRO-HG in my laptop gateway E - 155 running Vista 32-bit Professional (Service Pack 2), and I check the Device Manager, a device called "MemoryDisk0" appears under the "Disk drives" section of Device Manager.  It runs by default windows drivers disk.sys and partmg.sys.  The disk memory is not recognized by Windows (it does appear as a hard drive under 'Computer'), or he 'fills' when this button is pressed under "Volume" in the Panel properties for MemoryDisk0 (I get an error msg).  ALSO: if I hit "Scan for hardware changes" or even "Uninstall" for this device, the system just loops - nothing happens, and I have to use Windows Task Manager to end the task.  ALSO: if I try to restart my computer, Windows will not come - I need to remove the Memory stick or return o a previous installation of good.

    How can I get Windows Vista Business 32-bit to recognize the drive correctly?  I visited the site of SONY, and the only driver I can find for sticks of memory is the MSAC-EX1.  I did try and 'forcing' Device Manager Vista to load this driver for MemoryStick0, but Windows says that it is not a compatible driver.

    Hello

    1. When you mention "I get a msg of error", what is you get the exact error message?

    In Device Manager , right-click on the "MemoryDisk0" and select Properties, and check what error code you get and post back with the details.

    2. have you tried to connect a different Memory Stick?

    If other USB keys connect very well, then I think your SONY Memory Stick PRO-HG Duo MS-HX16A could be faulty and you may have to contact Sony for better help.

    Afterwards, do a right-click on the device (MemoryDisk0) in Device Manager and try to update and check if that helps.

  • Vista Business 32 bit crash version after the addition of mor to 2 GB RAM

    I am running Vista, up to this point, that I was able to make it work for me, and when I couldn't run my GIS software in Vista I used VistaBoot Pro and started in XP. I was with 2 GB of RAM and I tried to add more 2 GB and when I booted into Vista it cling to the bars of the screen with the green movement and would not go further. I can boot XP using any combination of 4 GB of memory, even if XP does recognize that 3.24 GB. So, why does Vista Business 32 bit version not starting?

    Hi Mikelmac,

    The option is disabled if the operating system installed on your computer is greater than the version available on DVD, and on the bottom of the screen even, you will find a message indicating the reason for the same.

    If your DVD is vista SP1 and Vista SP2 installed you will not be able to perform an inplace upgrade.

  • Problem installation Vista Business 32 Bit ISO on Optiplex GX620

    I asked to re - install a company ISO of Vista Business 32-bit specific on some Optiplex GX620s former.

    These are the only computers that we have. I tried every method of installation has failed to halfway through or simply does not work.

    I tried:

    • Bootable flash drive (this worked the first time but is end of installation even after formatting the disc flash several times). I have been using this method.
    • External DVD USB drive (BIOS is not recognize it as a boot device)
    • Installation on an Optiplex 755, then proceed to the exchange of hard disks. (This causes a restart loop when the hard drive on the GX620 loading, I'm guessing that following a conflict of driver. I can't use the CD we since none of the GX620s have installation DVD players)

    My question: is there another way to install this ISO I'm not aware of, or someone knows a way to solve one of the above mentioned conflicts?

    I know that is a lot to ask for these older machines, but our resources are overwhelmed, and our budget is not allowing us to buy new desktop computers at the present time.

    Thanks in advance for any advice you can give.

    I would update your Windows 10130 then Windows 10 Pro machines to make them Windows 10 devices (should you decide to use them with Windows 10). Later, you can reinstall Windows Vista:

  • Window vista business 32 bit auto update not install SP1

    I have Window vista business 32 bit on Sony Vaio laptop. My automatic update of the window is on, a lot of updates were installed, I can't find the SP1.  I checked the updates, saw "the view update history" but can't find SP1.  Basic information system shows no service pack. 'Winver' shows Version 6.0 (6000 building). All other window updates have been installed except "Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express edition service pack 3 (KB955706) who is still unable to install, do not know for what reason." I guess that there is no link between the failed SQL and SP1. It is after a complete reinstall of Vista 3-4 days back.

    Prior to the relocation is in that the original version, Vista SP1 was installed automatically by the Update window.
