• What can go wrong with the upgrade to 64-bit?

  I think upgrade to 64-bit but I have been informed that it will be slow and that hurt lost things, but I want to know that more help please if you can.

  There is nothing wrong with if your system supports the migration to 64-bit Windows.

  Windows 7 and 10 64-bit run comfortably on 2 GB of RAM with a modern processor.

  Windows 7 64 bit comes in handy when you need to deal with at least 4 GB of RAM or more. Windows 7 32 bit can use up to 3.2 GB of RAM. Because the address space of memory is much larger for 64-bit Windows, this means that you need two times more memory than the 32-bit Windows to accomplish some of the same task, but you are able to do much more, you can have more apps open, do things like run a virus scan in the background it will affect the performance of your system. 64-bit Windows 7 is safer too, malicious code cannot easily infiltrate it, drivers are more reliable because they must be signed before it can work with 64 bit Windows 7.

  Regarding compatibility, you need device drivers 64-bit hardware devices, you may have. In addition, there is no 16-bit subsystem in Windows 7 64-bit, which means, your applications must be 32-bit only, not 16-bit Installer or programs uninstaller. Also, if you decide to switch to Windows 7 64 bit in the future, there is no way to upgrade from 32-bit Windows, clean install only.

  Migration to a 64-bit version of Windows, it will take a custom Setup. This means, hardware drivers must be 64-bit compatible applications will have to be resettled.

• Holders for the upgrade from 32 bit to 64 bit?

  I have a 32-bit version of Windows 7 Professional (Win Vista Bus for Win 7 Pro UPG Media) that I purchased from NewEgg.  I want to upgrade to 64 - bit, but I didn't get 32-bit support.  This would require another purchase for the upgrade of the media?

  Yes, you will need to buy the 64-bit disc separately for distributions of Windows 7 OEM. Releasing it's easy: with Windows | ActiveWin | Laptops | Microsoft MVP

• The upgrade from 32 bit to 64 bit would make a big difference in photoshop CS6 performance?

  I work with CS6 in the system of windows XP 32 bit with 4 GB RAM max.  I constantly RAM problems saving or opening files.  I was told that change to a 64-bit operating system will solve these problems.  Does anyone have any advice or recommendations?  And if I choose to move from XP to Windows 7, version do I need for home, professional, or premium?

  If your computer is not particularly old and apparently has a capacity of 64-bit, I would certainly look past with a whole new 64 bit OS.

  There are those of us run Photoshop on Windows 7 x 64 with great success.

  And RAM is incredibly cheap right now.  I suggest go up to 16 GB if you can, even if we replace all the RAM you currently have.

  Something to keep in mind is that Windows 8 will be published this fall, and it will be priced at $39.95 for an upgrade (Yes, even an upgrade to XP).

  However, if you liked XP over his successors, you can hate Windows 8 again.  I already wrote a book on how to adjust and to increase Windows 8 to be a system based on the job because out of the box it is not something like its predecessors - the office is not where to start, and when find you your way to it to run what Microsoft sees as 'legacy' Win32 code, it is not yet a start button.

  If you really want to start talking about pushing the performance into the stratosphere, I can suggest a few ways to use SSD that can help you to do, but it is still expensive.

• The upgrade from 32-bit Windows 7 to 64 - bit Windows 8

  Original title: Windows 8 Pro Upgrade installed a 32-bit system

  Yesterday, I downloaded Windows 8 Pro. After installation, I found that he had set up a 32-bit system instead of 64-bit. My system Windows 7 was on 32 bits, but my processor is capable of 64-bit. Research on one of the forums of tecjh many people have had the problem that the downloaded version of Windows 8 is only 32-bit installation, even if the Windows 7 system is 64-bit. Does anyone know how to get Windows 8 to install 64-bit instead of 32?

  Use a pc that has x 64 os installed and re download win8 using the link in your email, now since the base is x 64 u will get a x 64 win8, burn the iso to a dvd and install it on your x 64 system support.

  Have not tried this, but some say it works... Since u already bought, it's worth a try.

• The upgrade from 32-bit to 64-bit Windows 8?

  Original title: Please HELP me NOW...! : D

  I have a big question... well here's my story (also sorry for my English) I bought Windows 8 Pro and I installed the 32 bit. But now I want to upgrade to a 64-bit, I can do that, if so, how? (I have the CD of windows 8 32-bit and 64-bit)

  You will need to do a clean install.

  Starting installation DVD you have (I think that the same disc contains 32-bit and 64-bit version). Then everything just go forward and do and the format of the drive system and you can choose to install the 64-bit version.

• The upgrade from 11g to 12 c

  Hello

  We intend to improve our databases of 11g (11.2.0.3.11) to 12 c (12.1.0.2). We would like to know what are the steps that we need to upgrade the position.

  (1) all 11 g AWs automatically updated to 12 c? or do we rebuild US 11g AWs on 12 c after the upgrade? (We had to rebuild AWs after upgrading to 10g and 11g)

  (2) are there accessories performance in 12 c, which will apply to only AWS built on top of the 12 c?

  (3) we have an AW 10 g 11 g-based. Is it still compatible with 12 c AW?

  Thank you

  Dietsch.

  Hi dietsch,

  My answers are online.

  (1) all 11 g AWs automatically updated to 12 c? or do we rebuild US 11g AWs on 12 c after the upgrade? (We had to rebuild AWs after upgrading to 10g and 11g)

  The upgrade from 11g to 12 c requires no AWs to rebuild.

  (2) are there accessories performance in 12 c, which will apply to only AWS built on top of the 12 c?

  He might have a few new optimizations that have been incorporated into the version of 12 c of the AW you will not have access to until you rebuild the AW, but that does not prevent you from using the 11g version of the AW of 12 c.

  (3) we have an AW 10 g 11 g-based. Is it still compatible with 12 c AW?

  Yes, 12 c is backward compatible with an AW 10 g.

  In addition, once you upgrade it has some new features that you can use for OLAP.  The display below describe some of them.

• The upgrade from VMware Workstation 12: can I install above?

  So I just bought a license to upgrade to workstation 12. Now, I noticed that it is (finally) 64-bit native. However, 11 Workstation is native 32-bit. Can I just install VMware Workstation 12 top like I did the upgrade from 10 to 11? Because the 10 and 11 were native 32-bit.

  The question is moot.
  Upgrade has always meant uninstall the old version, install the new version.
  If you do it yourself, you have more control, but the results will be the same.

  The safest option is: uninstall manually - reboot - check registry for services that have not been removed - if necessary, repair registry - restarts again and then install the new version right after the restart.
