cannot load 32 bit game on my windows 7 64 bit system

There are a few old games I like to play like Civilization II and sim city 4 Deluxe Windows 7 will not be installed.  has any body else found a solution?

Thank you for your response.  I found what was wrong. I have Windows 7 64 bit home premium so all my old game will not run on 64-bit.  I thought there will be a move to 32-bit driver.  I do not.

    3. is the relevant question to a specific application or a disk?

    You can try loading the latest driver available in Compatibility Mode which sometimes
    work however, it isn't anywhere near a sure thing.

    Exhausted all other methods in the Troubleshoot utility above before trying these.

    Logon as ADMINISTRATOR for all of them.

    You can try Compatibility Mode but this rarely works on the device drivers.

    Right click on the driver executable (.exe) file - select Compatibility Mode

    In the drop-down menu choose XP or Vista and Service Pack (if it is the version
    "you try the drivers).

    Click OK, and then let the race to see if it will install.

    =================================================

    It also rarely works on the device drivers but it is worth trying:

    Another method to try is to run the .exe (if self extraction) or Unzip (if it is compressed) to a folder:

    CD \the path to this folder as C:\User\Your user Name\Camera_Folder or whatever the path
    is the folder where the driver is unpacked.

    In this case it would be \User\Your User Name\Camera_Folder CD and would look at the prompt:

  • CD\DVD will not work. Vista Home premium, 64-bit. Message says: Windows cannot load the driver for this hardware device. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)

    I downloaded the drivers needed from the Dell site and the burner will not work. The computer was again in March 2009. Not sure where the drivers should be located. I downloaded on: win\syswow64\drivers\afc.sys. I've looked everywhere and tried to find a dialog box offering the option "update drivers" for this device. Could not find a way to do except Dell and that doesn't seem to work. The 64-bit system has no 'Device Manager' that I can find. When I look at the properties of the burner, the link to "find a solution" is not highlighted.

    Hello DanHenry,

    Try the miracle solution at this link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314060 but before you uninstall all third-party software (example: Nero, Roxio, iTunes). You can reinstall your software after you reboot your system. Please let us know if this helped you. Make it a great day!

  • Cannot load Windows 7 computer MS Flight Simulator (Deluxe).

    Failed to load in the new computer with Windows 7 OS MS Flight Simulator (Deluxe).  There has been repeated warnings for missing files.  Press 'Retry' and it seemed to switch to disk 2.  When almost finished, he said, he could not find the DLL file and load the program.  Please help.

    Hi Pbmfire,

    Microsoft Flight Simulator Deluxe is not compatible with Windows 7.

    Check the link to check for the compatibility: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-7/en-us/Details.aspx?type=Software&p=Microsoft%20Flight%20Simulator%20X%20Deluxe&v=Microsoft&uid=&pf=0&pi=0&s=MS%20Flight%20Simulator%20%28Deluxe%29&os=64-bit

    However as a workaround, you can try to install the game in Vista compatibility mode and check if you are able to use the game.

    To change compatibility settings manually for a program, right-click the program icon, click Properties, and then click the Compatibility tab.

    See link: make sure to run older programs in this version of Windows: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/Make-older-programs-run-in-this-version-of-Windows

    Follow these steps to try to solve your problems of boot.

    Do Safe Mode system restore, if it is impossible to do in Normal Mode.

    Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

    Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

    If the system or Mode restore safe work not and you do not have a Microsoft Vista DVD, make a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    System: Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. QC processor 2.5 Ghz, 4 GB RAM, Nvidia 9600GT. The work of modem very well until about a month. Uninstalles the device, I reinstalled it but the same messages. I've updated the driver and software, still nothing. In safe mode, the modem driver is loaded and the devicemanager reports that the device is functioning properly. Once the system is booted in normal mode divcemanager reports: this device does not work properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31). Help, please. I check the settings for the 6to4 drivers and there is no problem.

    Place your machine in a clean boot State to see if another application is in conflict with the modem.

I have a HP ENVY m6. Any ideas on what to do? Oh and I did a 'tune up' just a little bit before, but just the usual things nothing big or diff

    There are several models of m6 ENVY

    ENVY m6 -?

    This is a link to the audio driver for HP ENVY m6 - 1188ca (it can work also on other HP computers or not)
    This is a link to the HP support site to download drivers

    And this is something common for "tuneup", "speed up my computer", "registry cleaner" software to cause problems
    Looks like something to remove the registry entries for the driver

    Hi Suresh,

    In fact, the first client does not generate wrf files. Customer of the tile, client0, generates the wrf files. The first customer runs the harness and brings together the results of each client in the results file.

    The program which ensures the pings is located on client0, and he struggles to leave because of the bad number of bit Java on client0. This program writes to standby0.wrf. Your VMS Eve is probably fine.

  • Cannot load Windows 7 - Satellite C660 guard freezing

    Hello world.

    This is a biggy. I have a Toshiba AMD Vision Satellite C660 / C660D laptop without Windows installation disc. Last week, it has become very slow, the interface resembles that of the interface of safe mode, then finally, he became completely unresponsive, therefore, through F8 on start-up I selected the option to return to the factory settings (I have this option)

    The BACK screen appeared and started normal loading then who responded, then I rebooted only to see Windows starts for the first time and carry the load, before that I had to create a cd boot from my other laptop to reboot the system that I had lost the boot mngr.

    The last part of the installation process begins whereby a white Toshiba screen appears with a green progress bar which is responsible for some drivers (see attachment). There are 39 steps to this process and I remember before the computer should keep restart itself, but it keeps freezing after about two steps. I kept turning it off and eventually the locked system administrator accounts.

    Once more, I restarted the PC, but this time in safe mode, the operating system did in fact load in safe mode and I created a few new accounts with administrator privileges, however, I still cannot load all of the operating system because it keeps freezing during the last part of the process.

    I have very limited knowledge of loading operating systems, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    First of all, it was a big mistake NOT to create a recovery disk Toshiba.
    The recovery of HARD drive that you were able to start pressing F8, is only possible if the HARD drive is not defective.
    I think in your case I think that there is something wrong with the HARD drive because there was a Bishop of startup notification which means that this laptop can not find a boot manager to boot the system.

    I have no other idea about trying to reinstall the system using the Toshiba Recovery disk or another drive in Windows 7 (of course if you have one)
    If the recovery fails, you will need to investigate on how much material could be affected. I think in this case it of needed to start with HARD disk check.
    Possibly the HARD drive needs to be replaced. Of course it is possible that I m wrong part is affected, but at the first step you should check the new installation of the OS.

    A recovery disc can be ordered here:
