Vista 64 to Vista 32

Is they any way to go from vista 64 to vista 32 with out losing every thing?

linktoinsanity · 23 Mar 2009 at 17:58

Nope. Apart from backing up as much data as possible. Why would you want to though?

paul rope · 23 Mar 2009 at 18:00

because I want to use the Dragon NaturallySpeaking, and they don't do it for Vista64

Ahhh right I see where you are coming from now, still my answer remains the same, it should work on the 64 bit version as well as it does on the 32 bit version of Windows. C&C3 says 32 bit only, but runs happily on my x64 system. Dragon should not be any different from my reckoning.

http://community.nuance.com/blogs/d...dows-vista-64-frequently-asked-questions.aspx says they will.

Can you not run it through e.g. a VM or something?

paul rope · 23 Mar 2009 at 22:10

That is what it says

Can you select compatability mode when right clicking the installer file.

paul rope · 23 Mar 2009 at 22:16

What do you mean?

Daegan · 23 Mar 2009 at 22:36

Dragon NaturallySpeaking version 10.1 will start shipping by the end of March 2009. This release of the software adds support for Windows Vista 64-bit operating systems.

Once again: http://community.nuance.com/blogs/d...dows-vista-64-frequently-asked-questions.aspx

Right click the file you want to install, go to properties, then go to the Compatability tab and tick the the box Run this program in compatabilty mode for: Usualy Windows XP.

Worth a try can't say it will def work though

sometime it does work if you install in 2nd hard drive instead of master drive that wee bit tricky - when i tried to install other games like this and didnt work on master drive -- so removed it and reinstall and put into 2nd drive that worked prefect without problems - it work either 32 or 64

try run as admin in Vista or like some of this screenshot as select "Windows 95 or XP" that can work as well.
