Windows XP 64-BIT / duplicate SIDS after using Ghost to image

I've been using Sysprep and Ghost for many years without any duplicate SID problem.  We have recently updated our laboratory of AutoCad to AutoCad 2010 and decided to use Windows XP 64 BIT instead of Windows 7.  I created an image as usual, used Sysprep and then jacked up the image.  Now, all the machines in this laboratory show the same SID.

I used Sid Changer in the past to solve problems where someone has forgotten to run Sysprep, but never on XP 64 BIT.

All the world experienced this with XP 64 BIT and Sysprep changes only not the SID?

  • Windows Vista (32 bit) stops responding after installing the program...

    Hello.

    Recently, my Dell XPS M1530 (Windows Vista 32-bit) has been extinguished during the execution of the system updates (we had a power outage during the night and I didn't) and would only start in safe mode. I moved all my documents on a portable HARD drive and reinstalled the operating system to try to save the computer.

    After I did that and reinstalled the drivers (downloaded from the Dell site via my system identification label), I started to load my programs on it (Adobe, Microsoft Office, etc.). After I install a program and exit the installation window, Vista stops responding. I can't click on the Start button (the mouse will go over it, but it does not allow me to select) or one of the other button I have in my toolbar. I can't click anything in the Dock of Dell at the top of my screen, either.

    The only way to turn off the computer must press and hold the Power button until the laptop turns off. I HATE doing this, but there is no other way to turn it off once a program has been installed.

    Any thoughts on what is happening here? I hope this is just some kind of error on my part - I can't afford to get a new machine. I wanted to upgrade to Windows 7 (my machine can handle), but I don't want the same problem occurs.

    Thanks for your help in advance!

    Hello

    As you re-installed Windows and the problem persists the rules well enough software. The power
    failure should be accompanied by a power surge or other that has caused a problem in the computer.

    Makes it sound like there are hardware problems that can probably be repaired. Have you looked at the system
    by a real computer store (not the leeks and the glances at a Best Buy or other stores) or Support of Dell.

  • 650 HP laptop Windows 7 64-bit boot problem after installation of the graphics driver

    I bought the HP 650 laptop which came with Suse Linux.

    I installed 64-bit Windows and tried to install the corresponding graphics driver:

    High definition (HD) of Intel Graphics Driver

    as indicated in the list of drivers for Windows 64-bit here:

    http://h20000.www2.HP.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=5225013&...

    After installing the driver asked me to restart the computer and after the reboot, boot, Windows boot after displaying the Windows logo on black background the computer restarts again before you boot into Windows.

    After this crash to start a startup repair is suggested and I can complete the restore of the system that allows me to connect to Windows but I have not installed display drivers and things like Aero do not work.

    I tried several times and re - install drivers and had the same problem after each attempt.

    Help, please.

    It's quite a few updates failed.  This can be linked to the issue, but we don't know really until the update problem is resolved.

    Read this document to Microsoft as it addresses this particular error.  It also has various tools to try in case the first option does not correct the problem.

    You can also try the Windows Update troubleshooting utility included in Windows 7.

    Go to start > Control Panel > find and solve the problems under system and security > fixed problems with Windows Update under system and security.

  • Display problems using Firefox with Windows 7, 64-bit

    Hi support them

    I have a new desktop computer running Windows 7, 64 bit.
    When I use Firefox version 3.6.8 to view my Web site, it displays everything out of alignment.
    If I use IE 8.0 it shows very well.
    If I use my laptop which is running Win XP site displays fine with IE 8.0 and Firefox.
    So I guess it may be a problem with Win 7, 64 bit and Firefox work well together.
    Is there a ready solution to help solve this problem or I have to wait until Firefox came out in a 64-bit version?

    Reset the page zoom on Web sites that have bad air: "view > Zoom > Reset" (Ctrl + 0 (zero))

    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Zoom_text_of_web_pages

    See also the font size and zoom - increase the size of web pages and font size and zoom - increase the size of web pages and change use the sites of fonts and colors

  • Embedded search Google on our site shows no results. Windows 8, 64-bit, Firefox 30

    We integrated into our Google search site. It has been brought to my attention by one of our employees that Firefox does not show the search results after a click on the search button. The question seems to be limited only to Firefox. Tested the problem on Internet Explore 10 and Google Chrome and both work as expected, showing the results on our results page.

    I use Windows 8, 64-bit, Firefox 30. The user whose question is on Windows 7, 64 bit.

    I used the Web console and there was an error message
    "TypeError: google.search.Search.apiary5337 is not a function". "

    I'm not sure that it is the root of the problem or not, but why would that work in Chrome and Internet Explorer and not Firefox?

    If you need to check it out, the website is http://www.dmns.org/ . The search box at the top right of the page. You will see that the page redirects to our ' / results? q = searchterm "." We are a scientific institution so if you type 'science' in the search box, you will be redirected to the page ' / results "with the query string of 'science' for the search term. But in my case, the search results below are white. If you search even if Chrome or IE results show very well.

    Oh, I don't have any add on installed on Firefox.

    Any suggestions or a fix would be great.

    Thank you.

    Problem SOLVED.
    It is probably still a bug in Firefox. Our Google search < script > that call the function Javascript to Google has been within the Body tag. I moved the Script tag in the head and now it seems to work as expected. In the new Firefox, are not allowed within the Body element < script > tags?

  • HP ProBook s 4710: Bluetooth missing on HP ProBook 4710 s (Windows 7 64-bit) - Intel WiFi - Link 5100 AGN

    Hello

    I have a strange problem:

    I have two HP ProBook s 4710 here in front of me. The two "seems" to have the same hardware inside (I don't see any difference on the stickers in the back).

    I have install both of them with the same USB with Windows 7N 64-bit.

    After the installation is complete (no additional driver installed).

    the first bluetooth ProBook has

    the second bluetooth ProBook has NO!

    I checked the BIOS, every two active a bluetooth settings on both.

    WLAN works on both.

    On the first s I can also install the bluetooth drivers latest, on the second, I can't. Always the message occurred ("no device was detected. Make sure that... »).

    Device Manager indicates, the two ProBooks Intel WiFi - Link 5100 AGN, the first s also Bluetooth-device listed, the second of not.

    What the hell is going on here?

    Hello:

    It is very strange because the HP Wireless Assistant software is registered directly on the support page and driver 4710 under the solutions section.

    If this is the case, try the latest HP Connection Manager software which does the same thing the software assistant wireless.

    Here's the theory behind your dilemma (except radio BT died).

    This laptop once had the connection manager (since the software assistant Wireless does not) installed, and you can use this software to individually disable bluetooth or devices rather than using the wireless button wireless.

    I guess that for example, turn off the stereo bluetooth with the connection manager to save a small amount of battery power, which increases the time before having to recharge the battery.  But you can still use the wireless.

    The hardware button turns both off the coast.

    The big problem is...

    If none of these devices are turned off by the wireless assistant or the connection manager software and that you reinstall the operating system or to update or other, wireless or bluetooth devices do not appear in the Manager of devices as if they are dead or don't exist.

    And what makes this more puzzled, is that if you check the BIOS, you will see that they are present and active!

    The only way to make them work again, is to turn them on by using the Deputy Director or the wireless connection software.

    This is why it is absolutely essential to ensure that these devices have been turned on before you reinstall the operating system.

    For those people that upgrading to W10, none of these programs work on W10, so if the BT has been disabled, the user must return to W7, activate the bluetooth, uninstall the connection manager or the wireless assistant software, reboot, ensure that the device is always on and then upgrade to W10.

    Here is the link to the software of the support page for your laptop connection manager...

    FTP://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp53001-53500/sp53394.exe

    If this doesn't work or the other, I suspect that the BT module does not work (all hardware failures).

  • How to upgrade to Windows 7 64 bit

    Windows 7 Professional 32 bit DVD I bought at a retail store. But now I want to upgrade to Windows 7 64 bit. Can someone tell me what what should I do? I know I have a new installation of my formatting system drive. But my question is should I buy again Windows 7 64 bit DVD separately or download Windows 7 64 bit online and can use 32-bit series that I have to activate?

    You can use the same product key that allows you to enable the 32-bit version.

    You will need to do a clean install, there is no place on the way to upgrade Windows 7 32 bit to 64 bit.

    Using the disk of 64-bit Windows 7, install Windows 7 Windows Easy Transfer Utility from the DVD (to find it, simply navigate to x:\support\migwiz, "x:" is the name of your hard drive. (In this case, you will see a collection of files, the important"that you must search for and double-click is 'migsetup'.) run it and create a DAMP (Windows Easy Transfer file), if you have an external hard drive, you can access it later when you perform a clean install of Windows 7 64-bit disk so you can stored there.

    Once you have done this, just do a clean install of Windows 7 64 bit disc. In Windows 7 64 bit disk, start Windows Easy Transfer, follow the wizard screen, tap on which is stored the WET file (external hard drive) and it will restore your personal files and settings. Reinstall the applications needed.

    http://www.notebooks.com/2009/10/07/using-Windows-easy-transfer-in-Windows-7/

    Boot from the DVD 64 bit Windows 7
    Click Install now
    Accept the license agreement
    When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

    Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows 7 click Next.

    You will receive the following warning:

    The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.

    (At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK

    The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.

    Once the installation is complete, you can complete the Out of Box experience as the choice of your laptop, create a username, password, your time zone. You can then proceed to download the latest updates for Windows and reinstall your applications and drivers.

    You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.
