    I think the first question that should be asked is what is the name of the program that you are having compatibility issues with, hossamantar?

    Unless the code is 16bit, it should run under a 64-bit OS. 64-bit OS's can run 64 and 32 bit code.

    You cannot convert the app from 16 bit to 32 or 64-bit. It needs to be rewritten .

    Does this mysterious program have a real name? :) That would greatly help my, and anyone else's ability to help get you using this program.
