AMD Preparing to Drop 32-bit Support for Radeon Drivers?

It really does.
32 bit systems need to die 
now honestly when is the last time you ran 32 bit system? even on laptops -I've not had 32 bit since xp - which I left back in 2007 *yes I was one of those poor souls that ran Vista; wasn't as bad as people thought;

Aren't they limited to 3.5gb of memory? No use for a lot of modern games.
ding ding ding.........some laptop makers will still cheap out and put 32 bit version on their laptops so they don't have to put more than 3-4 gigs of ram into the system. *os costs the same; but cheaping out on ram saves them money*
As I said; for about 10 years IT industry has wanted 32 bit to die - but its hung on; finally its being put into the ground....

Had to install Windows 10 on an old XP-era laptop last weekend (Dell Latitude D420), and ended up having to use a 32bit OS as the CoreDuo processor didn't support 64bit, so I'm glad there is some 32bit legacy support out there.
However, given we're talking about driver support for GPUs here, I am fully behind the idea of AMD ditching 32bit support. I honestly can't think of any situation where a GPU that isn't under legacy driver support already would be running in a 32bit system. If you're attaching a Fury X to a CoreDuo or Athlon(pre-64) CPU, you're doing something VERY wrong with your life!

hahah...........again - I'd say exception to the rule
32 bit does need to die That makes no sense Core Duo doesn't support 64-bit as its a 64-bit processor
unless you got conned and actually p4 hahah...........again - I'd say exception to the rule
That makes no sense Core Duo doesn't support 64-bit as its a 64-bit processor
No, there was some core duos(not 2 duos) which where original Pentium Ms
they were 32bit only.No, there was some core duos(not 2 duos) which where original Pentium Ms
omg you're right; and that damn thing is old
but if its still ticking why not

I've been trying to kill the thing for years by regularly asking too much of it, and it's still showing no signs of missing a beat or letting me down! I did max out the RAM (a whole 2GB!) and treated it an SSD from OcUK a few years back - bet most people don't know they ever did 1.8" SSDs with a ZIF connection!
But you don't need the latest drivers for gaming anymore on them.

Has anyone had this happen before? I've tried installing the latest drivers after a clean install, but after I have selected what stuff I want installed and pressed go, I pretty much immediately (progress bar is at 2%) get an error pop up. I press OK to continue (only option) and all the other components appear to install as usual. Once they're all installed, the finishing window says drivers and settings were NOT installed. I think the driver itself is installed as the screen changes to 1080p but the CCC crashes when I try to open it...
What kind of error?

I can't remember. I've done another Windows 7 install but letting it do all the updates first this time incase it needed Network Framework installed or something (in the past the driver hasn't included it, when it has needed it, I think?)
with new crimson driver you do not need Framework anymore, as it is coded with different 'framework'
But obviously updating windows to the fullest would be a smart choice anyways.

Yeah, it was either a dodgy windows install, the fact I was offline when I tried to install it, or the fact I didn't have any updates at all installed prior to installing the driver. I did another clean install and did all the updates over night and then installed the driver and it is fine now.
Weirdly GOG also wouldn't run before, which could have been a similar C++ redistributable thing (as this time when I install GOG, it installed a bunch of them).
Me too! a E7400 and a Nvidia 6800 has kept me entertained (and googling the above stuff) whilst my main PC has had problems. In fact it has been the most reliable PC by far!
