We need to run the 32-bit version of the remote desktop client on 64 bit Vista, because part of our product integrates with it, and communicates with the terminal server side app via the virtual channel. The integration loads some third party 32-bit drivers, and it is not possible to load a 32-bit dll in a 64-bit process. Normally it i...

Hello, I am using attempting to create a connection to an Oracle database via entity framework in Visual Studio 2008. I am running 64 bit Vista Ultimate. At first, I had difficulty even making a connection to the db through Visual Studio, but eventually got things working by installing 10204_vista_w2k8_x64_production_db AND ODTwithODAC...
This is a minor, esoteric problem and not a showstopper, but I'm wondering what other VS2008 idiosyncrasies are out there.

I tried to run GDB manually and it, too, does not display the cerr output. Is anyone else experiencing this?? I am running the GDB 5.3-something that is available...

This is a chronological continuation of this question. I have simplified my board so it runs well with the DDK version of BulkUSB on 32bit versions of XP and Vista, but I'm not able to install it on Vista 64.(built with amd64 fre) I've been able to make windows recognize the files it needs to install, using both BulkUSB and USBSamp, but ...
