System Integrator on 64 bit - D-Tools Forum

Does anyone know if SI 4.6 or 5 will work in a 64 bit environment. Also, does anyone know if SI 5 will run on Windows Server 2003 R2?

System Integrator is a 32 bit application. It will run on a machine thats running a 64 bit operating system though. It will just run in compatibiliy mode. As far as Windows Server 2003 R2 is concerned I am sure it would work, but why would you be installing SI 4 or SI 5 on your server? Does someone actually sit at the server and work in System Integrator? If not then the only thing that should be installed on your server is LANSync (MSDE 2000), SQL Server 2000 SP4 or SQL Server 2005.

Our server also runs Virtual Server and doubles as a work station. The main reason it is on the server is so that if I'm on the road and need to pull up a proposal or generate a proposal on site I can remote into the server securely.

What operating system does the the Virtual have installed on it? Server 2003 just acts as the host OS for the Virtual Machine. If you are running Virtual Server then you would be installing System Integrator on to the Virtual Machine...not the host OS (Server 2003). For instance, if you create an XP virtual image then you be would installing SI on XP...not Server 2003 R2.

Likewise with the remote connection...if the Virtual machine is always running on the server then you should be connecting remotely to the VM. As opposed to connecting remotely to the Server thats running Virtual Server. Make sense?

Yes, It is installed on the Windows XP image on the virtual server. I'm just having one of those days.

Almost forgot, any data that is very important to the company is on the server because it runs an ultra redundant RAID 1 + 0 sporting 10 hard disk so that we can have multiple hard disk failure and still have the data.

I have a question regarding hardware PC and/or MAC Pro Intel Windows OS

May I run Dtools on a Mac Pro 2 x Intel Xeon 3 GHz with Windows OS?

I am experiencing problems with Windows XP French edition. Do SI 4 is working only on Windows XP US Edition?
