Installing CF-8 32 bit on 64 bit machine

[ciaranarcher]

Hi there

We are planning to upgrade our test server and to do so we were planning on buying some 64 bit hardware from Dell running Windows 2008 x64 Web edition.

However, for now we would like to continue to use 32 bit CF 8. Is there anything to stop us doing this, or do we have to move to 64 bit CF? Or has anyone had any problems running 32 bit CF on 64 bit Windows?

Many thanks in advance.

Ciaran.

You will have to enable 32-bit on your 64-bit machine:
