Windows 7 64 bit - PDF Viewer - PDFXchange

I found (as have several others) that Adobe products are not native 64 bit.

On Windows 7 64 bit the Adobe PDF viewer was crashing the 32bit print spooler.
I could not find a work-around for this issue.

I downloaded and installed the PDFXchange viewer from www.docu-track.com - it is a native 64 bit PDF viewer and it works great with both 32 and 64 bit IE 8.
Printing works great with no issues.

Windows 7 64bit - HP 2600n Printer Driver

I have so far been unsuccessful in install the 64 bit driver for the HP Laserjet 2600n printer on Windows 7 64 bit.
The universal driver, which I have installed and use, does not work for host based printers.

When I attempt to point the printer to the driver files it will crash the Print Spooler and then if you force the installation it will crash WIndows Explorer!!

I have not found a solution to this - anyone??

WIndows 7 D630 - Alps Touchpad

Found this site which referenced a newer Vista version of the TouchPad drivers.

I went to the Toshiba site and downloaded the newest version available for Vista:

I have installed this on my D630 and so far so good - no errors.

Windows 7 RC Quest AD Powershell ISE

I added the Quest AD Powershell Management tools to my Windows 7 RC build.
They work great in the built-in Powershell ISE.

You do have to have a single line first in the script to make them available:
add-pssnapin Quest.ActiveRoles.ADManagement

Windows 7 RC WinDirStat

Another program update.

WinDirStat v1.1.2 is working just fine. It did flag a installation warning that I had to click on the 'This Program installed Correctly' button.

Great little program for finding what is chewing all your local drive space.

Windows 7 HP 1022n

Downloaded the newest Vista driver from HP for the 1022 series printer.
Ran the install and then pointed the printer to use this driver for the 1022n printer and it works great now.

Windows 7 RC Printer Drivers

I have installed the following printers on my Win7 RC build:

• HP Color Laserjet 3800dtn
  -driver installs without problem (did not use the universal driver)
• HP Color Laserjet 3600
  -there is no driver for this unit - using the universal color laserjet PCL driver
• HP Laserjet 1022n
  -no driver for this one, using the Laserjet 1015 driver
• HP Laserjet 8100
  -driver installs without a issue

These drivers were either obtained using the Windows Update or direct download from HP.
