Windows 7 and XP on the same machine.

I have a computer running Windows 7 Professional (32 bit) and I need to run multiple programs in Windows XP Professional. Set up the computer so that the two operating systems so that I can choose the one I want to start? If so, how can I do it? Mode XP of Windows 7 is not a true XP environment because it does not have the Microsoft JVM program (Machine Visual Java) or installed it will be format FAT 32 discs (this does nor appear to be the same as exFAT). I need to restore files backed up using a program that does not recognize NTFS formatted. Can someone help, please?

It's been a while since I used XP Mode and I don't remember all the details, but I remember that you will not be able to attach a USB device if it is connected to the host computer using a USB 3.0 port.

You can share a USB device that is attached to a USB 3.0 port (or at least, you can do this with a flash drive USB;) I don't know about printers or scanners).

I don't know about you, but I suspect that unlike a printer or a scanner, USB flash drive must be attached to the virtual machine rather than share the XP Mode and the host operating system.

You connect the scanner to the same USB port that he was using before move you things?  If you unplug the USB port on the scanner, look at the plastic insert in the port: if it's black, it of 2 USB and click OK. If it's blue, it's USB 3.0 and it will not work in XP mode.

  • Constraints/General to keep PROD and databases on the same Machine TEST

    Hello

    Version: 12.1.1
    Database is 11.1.0.7
    2 node architecture (DB on a single Machine, applications on the same Machine)

    Client wants to keep PROD and databases on the same Machine TEST. Could you please let me know the issues and constraints that we can encounter this configuration in the future. While I can force the client to a machine more TEST.

    Thanks in advance...

    Hello

    My Client told me that I can provide more resources (CPU, memory, and disk), then why can't keep us as what he asks?

    There are other technical problems, that we can meet?

    I think the above should be enough :)

    Other proceedings continued would be impossible (as you said, because of human error, and in case the server restart is required). Even if they provide more resources it would be a conflict over shared resources (for example, what happens if a process on the test instance consuming all CPU/memory resources?).

    So, in futuere, we can improve the database to the new version and some environment variables in the registry may have affected it?

    Each instance will have its own entries in the registry and this shouldn't be a problem.

    Thank you

  • Can I install OBIEE 10 g and 11g on the same machine?

    While I'm waiting for new hardware, I wanted to start on the installation of OBIEE 11 g on my laptop. Can I do if I have already 10g installed?

    I want to assure you that if I install that it will not affect my current configuration of 10g. I don't know if it substitutes for certain files and folders, or if I can do a separate install for both.

    Hi, I installed OBIEE 10 g and 11g of the same machine (by car).

    Because the installation of 10g OBIEE was the first, it took the 9704 and 9703 port for messages of the BI server.

    Then I installed the OBIEE 11 g installation used the port 9500 (analytical) and por 9702 for BI server. It has also used port 7001 to Weblogic Administration Console.

    The two instances of OBIEE works great!

    I say you're wasting your time as such a script already exist and is called "oraenv.

    Just
    export ORACLE_SID =...
    Export ORAENV_ASK = NO
    . oraenv
    Export ORAENV_ASK =

    and you're done.

  • Impossible to activate the OEM Windows 7 after reappattage on the same machine after a disk crash

    When I buy my Mac, I was told that I could run Win 7 on a virtual machine using the Parallels application. I bought the Parallels software and an OEM Version of Win 7 Home Premium and istall and activate it without any problem. Recently, my hard drive crashed and I need to replace the hard drive and reinstall all software including the virtual machine and Win 7. I could not reactivate the Win 7 and I could not reactivate the Win 7 on the same machine.

    Their support came back with a long history to this subject and this restriction and in short to expect me to buy a version full of Windows 7 to install in Mac. Y at - it another way to activate windows because there is no phone number that I can call them and talk to them. Why OEM version is freely available and still no appropriate advice are given to the retailer t explain some limitations? Consumers like us usually bear the burden of all these issues as the purchase of a legal but copy cannot be activated and suckers feels when we were told a long string of legal things that did not communicate to us when we buy.

    Thank you

    Kenny

    It is one of the reasons why it is not a good idea to use an OEM software in virtual machines.

    You must use the activation of the operator and see if they will allow the reactivation.

    activation by telephone (call of the operator)

    Click the Start button

    in the search box, type

    SLUI 4

    and press the Enter key

    Follow the instructions, but when asked what service you need the ansafone phone, don't answer - it should oblige the operator to answer, who can deal with you

  • Oracle 9i and 10g on the same machine?

    Hello!

    I tried to install oracle 9i (* 9.2.0.1 *) and 10g (* 10.2.0.4 *) on the same server (windows 2008 sp2). First, I installed 9i and 10g (two editions of the company). then I tried to create a Database 9i with database configuration assistant. After you configure the database settings and began creating, the installer crashed (JRE. EXE, module symcjit.dll failure).

    someone has an idea of what the problem might be or a tutorial how to install 9i and 10g on the same server? Thanks in advance!

    Best regards
    Christian

    The problem is that 9.2.0.1 is not yet certified for Windows 2008 and was backed off long ago.
    This means regarding this version, you are on your own.
    Oracle 10.2.0.4 also is no longer in first aid, then Oracle will not address all the new problems.
    You can switch to 11 GR 2 or to demote the server to Windows XP. Windows XP is however out of support too.

  • Captivate 3 and 4 on the same machine

    Hello

    I have two licenses for Captivate 3 (Full Version) and you want to buy an updated Version of Captivate 4. My question is, is it possible to use the Captivate 3 (Full Version) and Captivate 4 (Upgrade) together on the same machine?

    Thanks for your replies.

    Welcome to our community, Denis

    Usually, if you buy a version upgrade, you will need to have only the upgrade on the machine. But as you have two full licenses I think you may have at the time.

    From a technical point of view, the two versions will co-exist peacefully.

    See you soon... Rick

  • VSphere hypervisor and Vsphere connecting the same machine

    Hi guys,.

    I have a basic question that drunk that I can't seem to find an answer.

    I'll put up a test of domestic/vmware server environment, but I only have one computer. I want to install ESXi on this computer, and then run VSphere via localhost to manage computers from the VM on the same host. So far, I've always set up ESXi on a host machine and then managed remotely, with my laptop. But I don't have the option here. Is there something in ESXi that allows this configuration?

    Thank you

    Gareth

    You can certainly run a Windows VM on the ESXi host, but you will still need another system to access. ESXi itself does not provide a graphical interface, and I'm not aware of any 3rd third-party tool that adds this feature either.

    Richard - Welcome to the forums.

    "You can not have VMware Server installed on the same host with another product VMware as VMware Workstation, VMware GSX Server and VMware ESX. You cannot have multiple versions of VMware Server installed on the same host.

    Only VMware products which may share a host with VMware Server are client VMware VirtualCenter (VMware Infrastructure Client) and the server software and the VMware Converter. If you plan to install VMware Server on a host of the machine which already

  • Is it possible to install Windows 7 and Ubuntu on the same partition?

    I'm a grad student and for my studies I need to ubuntu and Windows the long withit. Unfortunately in my laptop that only one partition is free. I would like to install Ubuntu inside Windows. Is this possible?

    No, this isn't a plausible scenario, the two operating systems use different file systems, Windows 7 uses NTFS and Ubuntu uses ext4.  Even if they use a common file system, it would still not be recommended.  If you have enough free space on the disk, you can shrink the partition, and then create a new partition on free space for Ubuntu, note that it still may be a bit difficult to implement correctly, you must have a knowledge base of the operation between the MBR and the boot so that it works correctly on the same hard disk.

    Have you considered installing Ubuntu in a virtual environment in Windows 7?  I think that this may be a better option.  Personally, the engine virtual without going I prefer VirtualBox , but some prefer VMware Player , which is also very popular.

  • Configure IIS and FMS on the same machine?

    I've been running a test server using Apache as a web server. The problem is that I have to be able to run FMS on an IIS computer, and there is a conflict on each trying to link to port 80. I read that a solution to this problem is to have 2 IP addresses, with FMS and link it to one and IIS bind to each other. This is not a requirement for Apache and FMS. Why is it a requirement for IIS and FMS? This question my living room, my lack of knowledge of the difference between the 2. But, is it possible to configure IIS or FMS so that they can share port 80 as FMS and Apache? I guess that someone can explain to me how Apache and FMS work together, and why IIS cannot?

    Both devices can never listen on the same port on a single IP address.

    In the case of FMS, FMS process acts as a proxy. When an HTTP request comes in on port 80, SGF forwards this request to an HTTP server listening on a different port.

    If you want to use a single IP address, you could bind IIS to another port (instead of port 80) and proxy all your HTTP traffic through FMS, but which will create a lot of headaches for you and will damage the performance of the FMS.

    Best solution... have separate IP addresses.
