Varkie, others,

I don't have any troubles running my version of DOE-2.1E on a 64-bit machine.  This may 
have something to do with the source code or compilation, since my version is the latest 
available from LBNL (same as from ESTSC), Version 124, dated 2008.   I'm in the process of 
setting up an open-source center through which this DOE-2.1E code and executable will be 
made available and maintained.   Until that time, anyone with interest in this version of 
DOE-2.1E can  send me an e-mail.

Joe
