Can I run a game that has been installed in a Windows version of 32-bit with a 64-bit OS?
That's the question, please answer me.
Very likely... :)
Most of the games are very good with few 76. The exceptions are-
Very old games of 16 bits (pre 2000) often have 16-bit setup programs that do not work on 64-bit.
They can often be installed on a 32-bit and copied computer at work 64-bit and again.
Some of the most popular games of old have new installers that are compatible with 64-bit available on fan sites.
It is not the OS that is causing the problem with a lot of games. This is the DRM (copy protection) not not grateful
an OS 64-bit as legitimate.
' 04-'06 are bad years of DRM. The older Starforce , Tages DRM are the most problematic.
Two associated DRM issues are - unsigned drivers (Win7 64-bit not only) or - the DRM is not compatible with 64 bit.
There are several fixes that will get most of the running games-
-Floors has a 64 bit update available on their Web site that works for The Witcher (possibly others).
-When a game cannot be executed because of the more zealous DRM it can very often be fixed with a 'noCD' patch
These can come from a couple of web sites (Mega Games), but some games do not have a noCD patch available.
Then, there are a few games that don't work on Win7 64 bit. Some 16-bit and BACK according to need of games
BOX of DOS or other emulators to run.

Original title: laptop won't read the music files stored on external hard drive
I have an old Compaq laptop Windows XP, so it was out of memory I transferred everything on a Portable Seagate (500 GB) hard drive and started to access it. It's worked well for over a year, but lately, began to stop playing my music files. Absolutely everything on the hard drive opens, however, images, files and folders, but when I go into Windows Media Player, it pops up with this error message:
Windows Media Player cannot find the file. If you try to read, burn or sync an item that is in your library, the element can point to a file that has been moved, renamed, or deleted.I have not modified parameters or anything that moved. I used to be just able to restart the laptop, or disconnect and reconnect the hard drive and it works again, but now it or not will be not at all, or it will cut off half way through a song and then not to play anything more.I can't find any support for this problem because the phone reads that the hard drive is there, and everything else works. Only the music doesn't. I tried to play music on a connected USB and it works fine. I'm so confused!Hi lkm0293,Here are some articles that you might find useful: -

Lately I get the following message if poster every time that someone sends me an email with an attachment. I use to be able to display up to a few weeks before. the message is - Windows Media Player cannot find the file. If you try to read, burn or sync an item that is in your library, the element can point to a file that has been moved, renamed, or deleted.
Does anyone have an idea on how I can display these attachments?
Thanks for your help.
Hi fredleon,
· What is the email client or webmail you are using?
· What is the attachment file extension?
· How do you open the attachment?
· Is it by double-clicking or you choose open with option.
a. save the attachment to the office,
b. right-click on the file and select open with the option to open the attachment according to their file extension.
Example: If the .docx file extension, then it is word document or .pdf, it's Adobe.
You can get the extension of a file by right clicking on the file and go to properties

I was working today on our old XP, Firefox update failed because it was a trick. Yesterday a Firefox updated was approved on our laptop (Vista). How know if we ourselves have infected? Thank you.
Do not worry. The message "something tried to trick Firefox" is just poorly written. This simply means that Firefox did not verify the certificate of the update and as a result has not installed. Other discussions on this message seem to suggest that this happens quite often and is not, in fact, an indication of "something try to trick Firefox", but a failure of Firefox itself.
If the update has been installed on the second time, so this time that he managed to check the certificate, as well as the update is ok.
