    Installing Java and Flash in Win7 64bit


    Hi all, I'll be installing both Firefox and Chrome in Windows 7 64bit (I use both). Do I have to install BOTH 32 and 64bit versions of Java and Flash to support FF (32 bit browser) and Chrome (64bit), or will installing the 64 bit versions suffice? Thanks

    You should install both versions of JAVA.
    Adobe 64 bit flash will install both as well.

    You mean that I should also install both 32 and 64 bit Flash?

    If you install Flash now in a Windows 7 64 bit system, both will be installed automatically.

    First, regarding flash, don't sweat it. Adobe now takes care of installing what you need.
