I downloaded the 64-bit version, but when i insert the DVD setup disk, nothing started up (auto launch error) and when i tried to run it it said "This is not a valid win32 application". Is this because I downloaded the 64bit version instead of the 32-bit version or is this a software error.
You can't run a x64 setup or file on a x86 operating system - try installing from boot and that should work :o) -- Zack Whittaker ZackNET Enterprises: www.zacknet.co.uk MSBlog on ResDev: www.msblog.org Vista Knowledge Base: www.vistabase.co.uk This mailing is provided "as is" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
