| Vista Home Premiun 64 bit | Older Software Compatiablity Good afternoon, I'm having problems with some of my preschoolers discs. I have gotten some loaded and running, but I am having problems with a couple. I am getting a "not compatiable with 64bit" error message. I have ran the compatiablty setup thingy. and it still will not work. Is there anything I can do to fix this? We have only had this computer for 2 weeks now.  |

| Vista Home Premium 32-bit & Vista Ultimate 64-bit both Service Pack 2 W7 Pro RTM 7600 32 & 64 | Re: Older Software Compatiablity Hi sdhoey and welcome to Vista Forums  Are you getting this message prior to installing the software? If so, then the problem could lie with the installation routine for the program(s). If these are 16-bit, then it is not possible to install them on a 64-bit system as these systems require a program to have a 32-bit or a 64-bit installation routine in order for them to be installed on these systems. |
