32-bit vs. 64-bit Windows Operating Systems

Our software will run on 32-bit versions of XP and Vista as a DOS application. The software will NOT run on 64-bit versions of these operating systems, so please be sure which operating system you are running before you purchase our software. View our return policy here.

If you're not sure whether your computer is running a 32-bit or 64-bit operating system, there is a simple way to check. Find My Computer, either on your desktop or under the Start Menu and right-click on My Computer. Select Properties. The System Properties screen that pops up should show the General tab. At the top of the General tab, under System, your computer operating system specifications will be listed. If you are running a 64-bit version, it will say so under this section. For some 32-bit XP operating systems, the system information will just say Microsoft Windows XP, which means you have 32-bit, not 64-bit.

Although the programs will not run on their own in 64-bit operating systems, there are some advanced technical steps you may be able to take to run the programs. However, if you choose to try these steps and cannot get the software to run, we cannot change our return policy. See Running the software on 64-bit Vista or XP for more information.
