What vm product should I consider on my new laptop 64 bit... ?

I think that the best product for your use would be VMware Workstation; However, it is not a "free" product I would suggest starting with VMware Server or VMware Player - these two are free and will allow you to run the virtual machines that you want to run. These two products are really intended to very different use cases:

VMware Player

Intended for the performance of virtual machines that are generated by someone else (i.e. Virtual Appliances). There are free sites out there for you to create your own virtual machines (VMX Builder & EasyVMX!, so this isn't a problem.) The thing that really distinguishes the player outside the server's user interface. Drive is really much better if you intend to sit in the front of the system running the VMware product. You will get a much more responsive user experience.

VMware Server

Expected to run virtual machines on a server "headless". You can create virtual machines, but the great "fight" with the server, is that you basically have to use a program of remote access to access/use your virtual machines. Server comes with a bundled remote access solution, but it is - say - not the best thing for constant use.

If you use one of them to start with and you find that you want available in VMware Workstation features, then you can go out and spend the money to purchase a license (you can also start with a free trial of workstation...)

  • possible to install the client tools OBIEE and OBIEE server in the same machine

    Hello

    possible to install the client tools OBIEE and OBIEE server in the same machine.

    Ex:

    Last week I've updated Patch BP1 in my local system, in the process, we got the update also oracle Client tool

    You should not install client tools because they will be automatically installed w install the server. The 11g installation guide says "do not install client tools on the same computers that host your server instances Oracle Business Intelligence, client tools are already installed on these computers (as part of the installation of Oracle Business Intelligence)."

  • Install Windows 7 64 bit and Vista 32 bit on the same drive

    I have Vista 32 bit installed on my laptop. Media recovery is on a recovery partition, I have no recovery DVD such as $85 for something that should be included with my expensive laptop anyway, it is a bit much

    I have a drive to upgrade Windows 7 from my laptop manufacturer that allows me to each upgrade or to start from scratch.

    I want to install Windows 7 64 bit on a separate partition for the installation of my 32-bit Vista, but when I boot on the DVD there is no option to select the 32 or 64 bit, it only allows me to install the 32-bit version. I have partitions installed correctly then they arnt the problem. If I try to boot from the recovery partition to install Vista 64 bit on a separate partition, to upgreade can leave, he simply don't say so, it doesn't allow the recovery or replacement of my existing Vista installation. Also, often when I boot to recovery mode, by organizing 0 start up, he simply waits some time and the Vista of boots in any case.

    How should I do to dual boot Windows 7 64 bit and Vista 32-bit, as all possible ways I have tried do not work, and I can't afford to buy the madmen of... Toshiba recovery media ?

    The 'disc Windows 7 from the manufacturer of your laptop upgrade' can be used to improve the qualification system of operating from 32-bit of Windows Vista that was originally installed on the laptop.  It cannot be used for any other configuration or purpose. Carey Frisch

    Actually, this isn't just a "upgrade drive" it's a full disc of Windows 7, I know that I can install full Windows 7 32 bit in a separate partition for Vista.

    The problem is solved in any case, I managed to hide my Vista (C) install with Acronis and boot to the WIndows 7 DVD. It then allowed me to install Windows 7 64 bit on the other Partition, because he did not think that 32-bit Windows Vista has been installed on the HARD drive. I managed to deceive it by showing the menu options of 32 bits or 64 bits in this way... I assumed it was a protection system put in place by Microsoft to stop upgrade problems if soemone tried upgrade Vista 32, Windows 7 64

    Now under Vista 32 and Widnws 7 64 on the same computer.

  • Using WHS and Windows 7 on the same machine.

    I searched and discovered that WHS is running on Vsphere, but this

    my situation and what I was wondering. I just bought these components:

    GIGABYTE GA-P55A-UD3P

    Intel Core i7-860

    G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4 GB model F3-12800CL9D-4GBRL

    ASUS EAH4350 SILENT/DI/512MD2 (LP) Radeon HD 4350

    LG Black 8 X BD - ROM 16 X DVD-ROM - model CH08LS10

    Now I would like to run WHS on a virtual image and Windows 7 on

    another. I will be ripping my blu - ray and DVD and I have plan of encoding

    paste them into a mastroska or mp4 file. If I store the files on the WHS image,

    There will be problems, their diffusion to the image of Windows 7 or any other

    another computer on the network?

    Now, I know that the realtek cards are not taken in charge, is there a custom

    d 8111, if not if I buy a new network card. I'll be able to

    create a raid-5 on this forum and have whs recognize it? Can also

    use multiple monitors in vsphere? I also wanted to install vsphere

    on a USB key, which will affect in anyway?

    Thanks for any help.

    Hello, yes you can easily run WHS and Win7 on a same machine, but...

    I'm not sure that ESXi is the hypervisor desired for this project.  With ESXi, you can access ANY virtual machine console directly - all that the local display is the shell for ESXi very plain text mode.  There is the possibility to cross a second adapter to a virtual machine using vmDirectPath I guess, but there's always the keyboard and mouse.  Essentially, any race VM services network (only), or that the RDP access or other.

    After what has been said, you could however plan to run Win7 host operating system (such as the computer is essentially just a PC Win7), and then to run WHS as a virtual machine in Virtual PC or vmware Workstation.

    Anyway you'd probably want to 8 GB of RAM in the box.  Another issue is the affirmation of disc - is one of the most beautiful features of WHS Drive Extender, then you probably want to either assign virtually complete drives individually.  Balancing OF can create a good amount of disk IO when it runs every hour and could easily bog down the host if it executes all of the same SATA drive.

  • ThinApp - I can't install Excel 2003 and Access 2003 on the same machine

    Hi all

    I have a problem and I can not solve. I have two packages of creatud:

    • Excel 2003
    • Access 2003

    When I install a package, it's the work of weel but when I try to install the second, I got this error message:


    A version identical or newer Microsoft Office Access 2003 (VMware ThinApp) is already installed


    Can you help me please ?

    Miluge

    The reason for the same GUID (MSIPackagecode, MSIUpgradecode) is the capture of the individual components of a single configuration. In your case, you could have captured Access 2003 and Excel 2003 in a single Office 2003 configuration. Thus, ThinApp share the same GUID of the original configuration.

    To resolve this issue, follow these steps:

    1. open one of the package.ini and uncomment the code MSIProductCode and MSIUpgrade (by removing ';' at the beginning)

    2. change code both MSIPackagecode and MSIUpgrade for this package. You can do it by changing just a single bit in the 32-bit key.

    For example, if your GUID looks like below,

    MSIProductCode = {2DF388F8-535F-6909-DBBA-288792F19500}

    MSIUpgradeCode = {0B400927-A236-B536-B00A-8961831A298F}
    You can change the values as below. Here I changed only the last piece

    MSIProductCode = {2DF388F8-535F-6909-DBBA-288792F19501}

    MSIUpgradeCode = {0B 400927 - A236 - B536 - B00A - 8961831A 298G}

    3. rebuild the package and test it. It should work now.

  • Installation of Windows XP and Windows 7 on the same machine

    I install Windows XP on my Windows 7 computer.

    So I had to get the Windows 7 disc and repair the system.
    Would be the XP Setup something like that? If I had to get the Windows 7 disc, or the BIOS would be the same?
    It's that simple, install the operating system and launch it from the start screen?
    Thank you.

    Hello

    First thing to do is to check on the website of your computer manufacturer to see if this model of yours has XP drivers available.

    If no XP drivers are available for this purpose, you would be wasting your time trying to install XP.

    If the XP drivers are available, here is information for dual boot the two OSs.

    You will need to set the correct ORACLE_HOME (etc.) before I started 'the listener', so that the listener has access to its library, executable files, and message files.

    If you start the Oracle 10 g listening port for your points to shell environment at the library files and message of the Oracle 9i ORACLE_HOME, you will get error messages during startup (probably the lsnrctl listener will crash).

    If you work with several versions of oracle (possible since Oracle 7 - even under Windows) - you need to be PRECISE. Set all shell / correct environment variables.

    Think that:

    -ORACLE_HOME
    -ORACLE_SID
    -ORACLE_HOSTNAME
    -ORACLE_BASE
    -NLS_LANG
    -PATH
    -LD_LIBRARY_PATH
    -etc...

  • How can I install win 8 and win 7 on the same machine

    I am running Win 7 Ultimate and want to install Win 8 Pro as an additional operating system without remove Win 7 and then have the ability to boot to one of the OS.

    One possibility would be to run Windows 8 as VM on Windows 7, although it may not give the best experience.

    Otherwise you're going to need another partition or another drive to install Windows 8 on. If you're talking about a laptop, then additional disks options are few but for a desktop computer, it is by far the best option.

    Provide the original disc is not full shrink the current C: partition to create the ability for Windows 8 must be installed on the empty space is not so difficult, that's exactly what I did with my Acer Touch PC to allow me to test Windows 8 and it worked perfectly (no space for another drive). I could even point Windows 8 at the partition of Windows 7 to search for drivers for the unidentified material, and all have been resolved.
