[Bldg-sim] running 32-bit program on 64-bit computer

[Larry Degelman]

?Hello Varkie,

This is a common problem for people using 64-bit Windows 7.  I have that version and have had numerous 32-bit programs that won't run on my 64-bit computer (though some do run.)  The only sure way I know of is to run these under the Windows XP mode.  If you haven't installed that capability, it's available at: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/download.aspx

Regards,

Larry

Subject: [Bldg-sim] running 32-bit program on 64-bit computer


I have brought up this subject before and the advice was 32-programs should work with 64-bit computers using Windows 7.  I have just replaced Vista with Windows 7 Professional.  I still cannot run the DOE2.1E program and the weather processors (PKAFT, MKAFT, STAT, etc.)  besides the APEC-HCCV.  I get the message that a 32-bit program will not run 64-bit computer.  I have a lot of files of buildings analyzed with DOE2.1E

Are the any instructions for making the adjustment?

Varkie
