    Are you sure your Flash is 64 bit??

    Not sure, but I thought there was no such thing a few months ago. Maybe there is now, but confirm at Adobe.

    Hi Sandy, Welcome to SF,

    As if now Flash player is only available for 32-bit. So try to open your IE -32 Bit then see whether you are able to open webpages with Flash contents. To obtain latest version of Flash you could check our Stick thread Latest Version of Adobe Flash Player

    Hope this helps,
    Captain

    Yeah, I think that is what that means. When you went to Adobe, it recognized that you had a 64 bit browser and therefore told you that you need a 32 bit browser because there ain't no 64 bit Flash.

    I don't know what browser you are using, but I dimly recall there is a way to run at least some 32 bit browsers on a 64 bit system.

    Start a new thread in the Browsers/Mail forum with a title like:

    32 bit browser on 64 bit system possible??

    Yes all browsers will run on 64 bit Windows. IE8 in Windows 7 x64 ships with 2 versions, 32-bit and 64-bit. There is not much support for 64-bit browsing when it comes to plugins and such. Firefox 32-bit runs and so does Chrome, Opera and IE8 32-bit. Most 32-bit programs in fact will run on 64-bit architecture. You do not have to have 64-bit programs on 64-bit Windows. Soon 32-bit will be a thing of the past, but right now software companies are still developing for the architecture.

    Hi all of you and thank you for trying to help me out.
    I cant find out how to open internet explorer 32bit:
    I have two explorers listed in my programs explorer(64bt) and just explorer thats how the laptop came loaded I cant find out how to see if the other explorer is 32bit and there is nothing in my manual to say it is
    Maybe I dont have 32bt just two explorers should I have?
