    Can I run a W10-64 OS on a 32bit Machine?


    It may sound strange but I have the need to run a 64 bit W10 OS on a 32 bit machine. My 32 bit machine (with W10-32 bit) as had a fatal crash. The C: HDD appears to be toast. I have a drive from another machine available with W10-64 bit on it. I've put this in the 32 bit machine and it appear to run fine after a couple startup errors.


    Is there any GOT-YAs that I should be aware of? I plan to restore 32 bit W10 sometime in the near future.


    Thanks, Gerry

    :)

  3. VB on 64-bit W10 machine

    Hi

    I need to modify a program originally written in VB 2010 under . net 4 on a 32-bit Windows machine.

    I now use a 64-bit W10 dual screen machine.

    What should I down-load and from where?

    Thanks for your help.

  4. Can I run a W10-64 OS on a 32bit Machine?

    iso will not boot on 32bit xp machine

    I tried to boot using the media creation tool on a 32bit xp platform, but every time I get "missing/corrupt file /boot/cmd". After recreating the iso several times using media creation tool and finally testing the 64 bit version out on another machine, I
    realized the file is neither missing or corrupt. It simply just won't boot on my machine using 32bit xp. I was going to try preinstalling windows 10 on an external hdd and then use that to format/install onto the old machine, but unfortunately it will not
    allow me to install a 32 bit version onto the external since the host machine is 64bit.

    I'm at a complete loss as to how I can possibly get this OS installed. Any ideas???

    Also I tried to contact Microsoft, but it just kept linking me here. Thanks for nothing Microsoft!
