Conversion Pack
Windows Server 2003 is well
known for its superior speed,
stability, and security when
compared to Windows XP. This
fact is proven by
Microsoft's use of the
Windows Server 2003 kernel in
both Windows x64 Edition and
the upcoming Windows Vista.
Given this fact, it's no
wonder that many Windows users
have already switched to
Windows Server 2003 to gain
such improvements. However,
these users will have no doubt
also discovered that
compatibility issues are
common when using Windows
Server 2003 as a primary
home-use OS. Until Now... We
are proud to present version
2.0 of Windows X's
popular Windows Server 2003 -
XP Conversion Pack. This tool
will convert the Windows 2003
codebase from ServerNT to
WinNT, which will enable
locked features and transform
Windows Server 2003 into a
more compatible, and usable OS
like Windows XP. After
converting, your OS will
perform like Windows XP
Professional x64 Edition.
Finally you can gain all the
advantages of running Windows
Server 2003, without the
compatibility headaches!..

Windows Home Server Connector does not currently support x64 home computers, which has caused a lot of frustration and angst amongst early adopters of
the x64 platform. Microsoft have previously announced that they would provide x64 support for machines running Windows Vista (

21.08.2006Next Release of OneCare Won't Support Vista x64
Peter GalliWhen Microsoft
announced that it was ready to
roll out Windows Live OneCare
version 1.5 to coincide with
the general release of Windows
Vista, it omitted one
important fact: the product
will not support Vista x64 or
XP x64. I received an email
this morning from a reader
telling me that the OneCare
v1.5 beta would not install on
his Vista test machine as it
was just for 32-bit systems.
"It would be nice, now that
64-bit Vista is set to go, to
specify if the software will
run properly in 64-bit," he
said. "Has this changed in
the final release? It would be
nice to know as I have OneCare
on all three home PCs, and
plan on upgrading all of them
to 64-bit Vista," he said.
So I asked
Microsoft, which confirmed
that, indeed, OneCare v1.5
would not run on Vista x64 or
Windows XP x64 for that
matter, "although it will
support 32-bit Windows on x64
hardware," a Microsoft
spokesperson told me. The
spokesperson was also pretty
non-committal about the
possibility of x64 support
going forward, saying "we
continually evolve OneCare to
meet customer demand, though
we have no further specifics
to share at this time around
potential support for x64 in
the future." My colleague Joe
Wilcox spoke to Gina Narkunas,
the lead product manager for
Windows Live OneCare, this
evening from London. She told
him that "it wasn't a
business priority to support
64-bit," because there is
"no consumer demand" for a
64-bit right now.

interesting factoids have
turned up in it:
Q: How big is SP1?
A: śWindows Vista
SP1 is approximately 45 MB
when delivered over Windows
Update and is designed to not
significantly change the UI or
regress application
compatibility.ť
Q: What are some examples
of śsupport for emerging
technologies and
standards?ť
A:
śWith SP1, Windows Vista can
boot via EFI (Extensible
Firmware Interface) on an x64
machine. SP1 supports ExFAT, a
new file format that will be
used in flash memory storage
and consumer devices Support
for SD Advanced DMA Support to

AMD's graphics group has just
uncorked yet another monthly

improvements, including a
claimed "11% or greater"
performance boost with
antialiasing in Lost Planet
DX10 on the Radeon HD 2900 XT.
Such performance improvements
with antialiasing on the
Radeon HD are both needed and
possible for reasons we

here. 3DMark scores on
the Radeon HD 2400 and 2600
are purportedly up by "as

Live Messenger 8.5 update no longer supported on XP x64
Thanks Avi for posting this in Back Page
News.
From the Inside Windows Live Messenger Team Blog: Back
in November we shipped the final version of Windows Live Messenger 8.5 along with several other Windows Live applications and services. A lot of you
have already upgraded, and for that we thank you and hope you’re enjoying it as much as we enjoyed building it. Starting soon, we’re going
to make it easier for those of you who haven’t upgraded yet to get onto our latest and greatest.
This will happen in two phases.
First, everyone running Windows XP or Windows Vista will get a prompt encouraging you to upgrade. When you accept the upgrade, the new unified
installer will launch and start upgrading Messenger. While it’s installing, you’ll have the option to download and install other Windows
Live applications. You don’t have to take any of them, but we think you’ll like them and hope you’ll give them a try.

Andrzej Lipka: When you try to open the Distributed Application Designer from a console installed on an x64 server you may see the console crashes

Live OneCare Home Page Crashes Internet Explorer 7 x64
So I'm sitting here trying to
get the Windows Live OneCare
version 1.6 story up on the
front page, and I can't
figure out why Internet
Explorer 7 keeps crashing.
I've never ever seen it crash
before. And yet, it always
seems to happily commit
suicide right before I'm done
putting the news article
together. I finally track the
problem down to the fact I
keep launching the OneCare
home page to grab the link.
Yes, you read
correctly. It would appear
that Microsoft's Windows Live
OneCare home page causes IE7
64bit to crash. I took the
liberty of downloading Firefox
x64 to make sure it had
nothing to do with 64bit web
browsers in general. Nope,
Firefox loaded the page just
fine. How embarrassing for
Microsoft. The issue has been
reproduced on two separate
Windows Vista machines with
entirely different
configurations. Can anyone
confirm the issue with IE7 x64
on XP?
Note: On
Vista x64, IE7 32bit will load
the site correctly.
