Installing 64 bit application?

B

Bill

I have the following capabilities with my machine

Multicore Capable = NO
Hyperthreading Capable = YES
64 bit Technology = YES (Intel EM64T)

(I have a Dell XPS Gen 5 3.8 Ghz)

I was told I could run Vista 64 bit and tried to install it to an empry HD.
Clicked on the setup file and got a message that said it was not a Win32
application. I knew that. Can I install the 64 version through my 32 version
of XP?

TIA

Huh? I suspect you are trying to run the installer while Windows is already
running? You might have to boot from the DVD to install.

I think you are correct - I am an idiot :blush:(

No, it's the same for everyone: live and learn.

It is the re-learning things I already knew that annoy me <G>
