32-Bit Vs. 64-bit, Batch Processing Of Camera RAW Files With Photoshop CS3
Mar 23, 2008
I've got a Dell D830 with Vista Ultimate 32-bit pre-installed. It's got the max 4GB of RAM installed. I do not yet own any software or hardware which claims it can benefit from 64-bit so what are the advantages? I will not be doing any gaming but I will be doing a lot of batch processing of camera RAW files with Photoshop CS3. The guys in the Photoshop forum said there is no benefit really unless I was able to load more RAM.

I've been reading a lot on the internet about vista problems, errors, etc. and one of the first checks someone tells the OP is run sfc. Well more than likely if they are posting in a forum asking for help, they don't know how to do it, or what it does. That's the main batch file I made, I also made one to show wireless signal strength, one to defrag the hard drive, and one to clear the dns cache. I know its not much but I'm just trying to help some of the folks that dont know vista so well and are having a hard time... I'm working on some finishing touches so they look nice then I'm zipping them up and posting them here

My company installs our software on about 50 computers a day. Included with that install is a remote-login software. In order for everything to work properly, we have to make a user, elevate that user to administrator, hide the user, and set power settings correctly. In xp, this is no problem, and up until now, we've required our clients have 2000 or xp. As vista is now over a year old, we're adding support for it too.
My problem is that the batch file I've written to handle adding a user and setting the computer properly requires administrative rights (see 'add user'). Everything I've read says something along the lines of 'right click, run as administrator' or 'to turn off uac, do this.' These are not options for me. The people installing this software are usually about computer savy as my grandmother, so I can't have them performing extra steps beyond 'click here. this pops up. click here. this happens. click here.' I'm ok with with boxes popping up asking for permission, but I can't assume they'll understand right-click. I need to know how to raise my permission level from the command line. I need to be able to do this on any computer, no matter the computer name, administrator name, etc.

For many years I have been using a batch file to back up files later than a
specific date to a temporary directory. I then copy them to an external hard
drive. My new computer has Vista business. I am unable to get the batch file
to work. Would someone please help?

I have thousands of photos in a variety of formats, including photoshop, and when I look at them using windows explorer (Vista Ultimate, with classic folder view turned on, and “details” chosen from “Views”) the files are listed as Name, Date Taken, Tags, Size, and Rating. I really don’t care about the date taken, which is blank for all PhotoShop files, I want to see the date created, or modified – the way it was displayed in XP. This only happens with folders that are dominated by graphics. Is there a way to replace “Date Taken” with “Date Created?”

I can't seem to Un zip my zipped files. What I am trying to do is unzip brushes for GIMP (it's like photoshop) and the brushes need to be unzipped and placed in a folder in GIMPS brush folder for them to work.
I download the files and go to unzip them but the icon has changed (to a firefox symbol). My comp tells me that its a zip file but the option for unzipping just isn't there and I can't figure out what program they need to be opend with in order to get them to unzip. If thats even what the solution is. What am I to do?

I had lot of issues while installing the Vista x64 Operating System and after a long research, I was able to locate the issue. i.e. I had to disable "Core Multi-Processing" from the BIOS while installing the Operating System. However after successfully installing the Vista Operating System and all the latest services packs/updates when I enabled "Core Multi-Processing" from the BIOS, my system would work for few minutes and then crashes (Does not restart, but just hangs) with a Stop blue screen error stating "A Clock interrupt was not received on a secondary processor within the allocated time interval. Stop: 0x00000101". I just have 1 processor installed on the first slot of the M/B. The issue occurs even if I sit idle and do not perform anything on the computer.
If I disable "Core Multi-Processing", my system works fine with out any issues.
I have even downloaded and installed the latest BIOS updates and drivers for NIC card and sound card. I do not have any 3rd party hardware devices attached to it. I also do not have any softwares installed on the computer yet. I even tried re-installing the OS couple of time.

Ciao from Dallas! This is my first post here and though you folks all seem very pleasant and extremely well informed I hope I don't have to spend lots of time here. I would rather be enjoying my new computer rather than reading about how it works and how to get it to work, if you know what I mean. My computer uses are very limited by most standards (internet, email and some word processing for the most part with simple audio/video and photo work occasionally) so I prefer stuff that allows me to easily and repeatably get the job done with a minimum of fuss and struggle. With that here's the short story and the questions.
Lucky me, I had to replace my eight year old computer last week. Big change smacking me in the face! Even the new keyboard is taking some getting used to. I had no idea, nor did the salesperson mention, there were multiple versions of Vista to contend with until I began re-installing software I had used for years. Not everything likes 64bit! ...........

2. I was messing about with services this morning and now I cant view my hard drives in Computer Management, Disk Management.

I have the following problem which cannot fix for a few weeks now and growing increasingly frustrated: Sending emails always generates the following message: 'some errors occurred while processing the requested tasks'. The message then stays in the outbox and the contents of message are deleted. I then need to delete the message which goes into the deleted items folder.
However, the email does actually get sent which I've verified by i) checking on send server of gmail and ii) sending/blind copying myself which comes into Windows mail inbox in the normal way. I would greatly welcome advice on how to remove the error message such that outbox messages automatically go to the sent folder rather than generating the error message and the message contents completely disappearing.
The only workaround is to bcc myself on outgoing mail so that I have a record of what I have sent from WM which then appears in the inbox with the text intact. As background, I have installed the Vista and WMutil patch and run all the checks and tabs to no avail. I have had AVG anti-virus installed for over 1 year. The problem manifests itself consistently in different countries and for both ADSL and wireless so i've discounted this as an ISP issue.

I am trying to run a batch file in vista as an administrator. I know I can use the RUNAS command, but this prompts me for a password. (and what password is a mystery to me as it's a non domain machine and there isn't a user called administrator, but that's besides the point). What I am looking to do is to replicate the behaviour of Right Clicking on the batch file and clicking 'Run as administrator', then the security box comes up - this is fine, that is EXACTLY what I want to happen. The user already has adminitrator privilages and I understand that I'll never get around the security box coming up - I don't mind this, but I can't seem to find a way of replicating this.

Whenever I write a batch script that provides options using 'if' statements, and input a semicolon, it terminates unexpectedly. Is there a way to prevent this? ~Is there a way I can write the batch file so that it doesn't terminate when I have a semicolon in the input?

To rename a file, you do not need to open the file in a program.
Right-click the file that you want to rename, and then click Rename.
Type the new name, and then press ENTER. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
Tip
You can also rename several files at once. If you give files of the same type the same name, each file will have the same name followed by a different sequential number (such as Renamed File (2), Renamed File (3), and so on). This can be useful for grouping related items. To do this, select all the files you want to rename, and then follow the same steps as you would for renaming an individual file. Each of the files will be saved with the new name, and a different sequential number will be appended automatically to the end of each file name.

I'm trying to create a batch file so that I can bring up 2 sites at one time when I open my browser. I use Firefox & IE8. What I have done so far to no avail is created a file as follows and sent to desktop from notepad named test.bat:
without parenthesis in the above. I can get these to open consecutively, same browser window if I have a browser already open. But, not without browser open. How do I connect the 2 sites to open in 2 tabs, same window? I also added them as multi home pages, then sent shortcut to browser to desktop. This does work, but, not what I want.
Is there anyway to create a batch file and have these 2 sites open at start up, by-passing the desktop without clicking to open the browser? Also, I know that clicking on the shortcut to the browser that's on the desktop does slow down the launching process. If there is another way upon start up, will it be slower as well?

how to make a batch file where you could start, disable, stop and manual for a service from the command prompt? for example instead of going to services.msc and right clicking on a service then clicking on properties then making the startup to be manual,automatic or disable. I could do with a batch file where i would just launch the batch file and it would make the startup to manual and then disable the service that i want to disable.

I am having a problem with my Windows Mail. I have had to do a restore using the Packard Bell restore feature on the advice of my tech guy and have encountered a problem. Prior to the restore everything worked fine.
The problem is in the send/receiving of mail. When I press the Send/Receive button the Windows Mail dialogue box (showing the error tab) comes up a tells me;
Some errors occurred while processing the requested tasks. Please review the list of errors below for more details?
No errors are showing and at the bottom of the box it shows ?0 of 3 tasks completed successfully?.
At the bottom right hand corner of my screen it shows the number of the last messages received. I can still send messages if I go to; Tools, Send and Receive and Send.
On starting up my PC and Windows Mail, mail is received and sent in the normal way but when I try Send/Receive any time after that the problem occurs.
I have checked my ISP mailbox and there are no outstanding messages.
I have checked all my setting against my laptop and they match, I have three e-mail addresses and am operating Windows Vista Premium, all updates are downloaded automatically.

Bought Gateway 64-bit Vista in 1/09, installed Photoshop CS-4 and it has never worked. (9 months of frequent, blue-screen crashes with any fairly large Photoshop files, but also random crashes in everything from simple OS operations to internet operation.) Had computer back to Gateway 4X, and Re-installed CS-4 just as often - bugged both customer service people repeatedly, and they simply blame each other. Tried all sorts of trouble-shooting ops with CS-4 preferences. e.g. Disabled Open GL Drawing - no change. Installed a new NVidia 9500 Graphics card, and still crashing. Someone suggested the problem might be fonts - I did install some, will try uninstalling - but don't know what's original and don't want to re-install the operating system yet again.

Just got my new comp with Vista X64 with SP1. Still doing so much time searching on all the software I install.. I plan to install Photoshop CS3 and Dreamweaver CS3, however I'm not sure if it's compatible and fully function, error-free on a Vista X64 OS. I understand you are able to run 32bit Apps, but just need a confirmation before I go ahead.

I have recently installed SP1 to my Vista X64 machine (dual core 6700 o/c to 3ghz, 8 gb ram, raptor 10K 74gb system harddrive, raptor 10K 150gb large file and partitioned PS scratch disk, 340 gb 'everthing else' harddrive, nvidia 8800 640mb gts videocard, wacom A3 wide table) and I have noticed really strange behaviour in PS CS3. It generally feels slower and when I work on larger files (183x120cm @300dpi) it's much slower than pre-sp1 on the same file size.
The odd thing I have noticed is that it crashes (fades to white - not responding ) when I use the transform scale tool and when I add a Layer blending effect ( drop shadow / gradient etc ) it never did this before as it used to render it instantly.....now it takes a least 30 sec to 1 min to create and/or recover from the 'not responding' white out screen. Has anyone else found this with PS CS3 and Vista SP1? - It's very annoying especially as I had the system perfect before the SP1 upgrade. How can I fix this?
