• Software Development for Windows Vista Not finding drives

  Hi all, Ive downloaded Vista 32 and 64bit. When I try to install the 64bit it doesnt pick up my drives so I cant select where to install to but the 32bit version picks them up fine. My processor is AMD Athlon 64 3200+. Many thanks in advance. Hi Doyley, This is a setup issue, I would send a bug report to Microsoft detailing the scenario you are running into. Also what build of Vista are you running Are your drives hooked up through a RAID array If so Vista might not be picking them up through the RAID controller because Vista might not have the driver installed, select F6 durring install to install a 3rd Party RAID or SCSI driver. You can also check your system manufacturers website to see if they h ...Show All

  Hi, I am new to SQL 2005, can someone give me some details instructions about how to do below two tasks: All my developers are in a window domain user group, I need to grant dbo privileges to that domain group so then can do the their development work. The rule is all objects they create need to be owned by dbo not by there ID.

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Using XAML across dll's

  Hi, Let met start with the problem. I have 3 projects, 2 class libs (dll) and 1 application. In project 1 (dll) I defined a xaml file with code behind, (.xaml, .xaml.cs), I will refer to the class as gridContent, as it has a grid as its root element. Now, in 'project 2' (dll), I inherit from gridContent.

• Visual Studio Visual Studio 2005 Professional Product key

  My MSDN subscription lapsed in March last year. I have MSDN CDs for Visual Studio 2005 Professional and now I want to install it. Although I can still log in to the MSDN subscribers' area, I don't seem to be able to view product keys anywhere. I accept that this may be because my subscription has lapsed. The only product key in the printed documentation is for VS .NET (i.e. 2005 not specified). Is the product key the same for all versions - i.e. can I use this key to activate Visual Studio 2005 Professional Thanks in advance. Your license to use Visual Studio 2005 from the MSDN Subscriber downloads expires with your MSDN Subscription and you can't use the key for VS.NET 2003 to install Visual S ...Show All

• Smart Device Development 850428 - strh instruction

  how can i tell embedded visual c++ not to produce strh, str, ldrh and ldr instruction, never ever in any part of my code this will solve the alignment exception very easily. i don't mind about the performance of my program. i prefer it to be reliable. i don't need MS to decide for me! i need an option not to use benefits of technology! i need an option to tell the compiler not to produce these instructions. how can i do that Yes, I see, but then even the regular Win32 compiler does not do this. On the x86 platform (Win32) if you attempt reading from an improperly aligned address, you get an alignment fault handled for you internally (which indeed slows things down a bit).
