  Is it possible to set my computer to allow this program to run successfully? Any solution would be greatly useful.

  Hello Rdforbe,

  The problem is a software that was created for Windows 95, 98, and Windows XP has no way to work correctly with an operating system that didn't even exist when the software was written. However, the error message you get normally means that you have a 32-bit software that you are trying to install on a 64-bit system.

  To find out if your computer is running 32-bit Windows or 64-bit, follow these steps:
  System opened by clicking on the button start , by clicking on the Control Panel, click System.
  Under system, you can view the system type. This will describe if you have 32-bit or 64-bit.

  You can also try compatibility mode.

  If the program is not compatible, then you try to install and run the program in compatibility mode.

  Use the following steps:

  (1) right click on the program

  2) click Properties

  3) click on the Compatibility tab

  (4) select run this program in compatibility mode and select Windows Vista or other operating system, the program has been run successfully.

  What can I do?

  Hello
  
  1. which edition of Windows are you using? Is - this edition is 32-bit or 64-bit?
   
   
  Given that the game is compatible with Windows 7, I suspect that the conflict can be 32-bit or 64-bit architecture.
  The link below shows the compatibility of this game with Windows 7.
  http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/Windows-7/en-us/Details.aspx?type=Software&p=Microsoft%20Flight%20Simulator%202004%3A%20A%20Century%20of%20Flight&v=Microsoft&uid=&pf=1&pi=3&c=PC%20Gaming&sc=Simulation%20%26%20Driving&os=64-bit
   
   
  Method 1.
  We must ensure that the edition of the game must correspond with the operating system.
  If you use 64-bit in this game, you need the 64-bit Windows to install it.
  Method 2.
  If the above information matching I you recommend to start the computer in clean condition and then try to install the game.
  See the article below for instructions on how to start your computer in a clean boot state.

• is not compatible with the version of windows you are using, with X 86 or X 64

  My son downloaded something and now I can't use anything on my computer, I get "not compatible with the version of windows that you are using, with the X 86 or X 64... I uninstalled it but it will not go away, I tried to do a system restore, but I get the same error... ideas?

  What antivirus you typed the problem started?

  It seems fishy to me, it could be a virus that has been downloaded at a given time, perhaps even until this program was installed. I would try an online virus scanner.

  Try this: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/how-do-i-remove-a-computer-virus
  And: http://quickscan.bitdefender.com/en/ (from what I hear, it removes something fishy, so be careful!)
  But also: http://housecall.trendmicro.com/
  It should work with IE (Internet Explorer).
  Curiously, the ones I tried before I could not find, so I did a quick search and these look good.
  I forgot to ask sooner, but you can open command prompt (start > Accessories > try click right-click on command prompt, and then run as administrator)?
  I hope this helps!
  PS What version of Internet Explorer you have?

  IM facing problem installing some software: the error message is below to:

  The version of this file is not compatible with the version of windows that you are running, check your computer's system information to see whether you need a x 86 version or x 64 of this program and then contact the software publisher

  Windows 7 will not be included within the compatibility list, because you are already using Windows 7. Your only option is to contact the Publisher of software (the company that built the program) and get a version that works with your computer type (64 bit or 32 bit, whichever one you have).

• Is my MacBook Pro 15 "end 2013 compatible with Thunderbolt 3 devices (if you are using an adapter)

  I have a MacBook Pro 15 "end of 2013, 16 GB, 1 TB SSD, 2.3 GHz i7 running OS X 10.11.4." My SSD is maxed out so I plan to buy a box 2 Berry drive Thunderbolt and secure it with a 1 TB SSD.

  I know Thunderbolt enclosure 2 still available, but lightning 3 cases are starting to hit the market. I wonder if a Thunderbolt 3 box will be compatible. Because I'll probably replace it the MacBook Pro 12-18 months and I assume - rightly or wrongly - that Apple will adopt 3 bolt of lightning on the MacBook Pro, Mac Pro and iMac during this period, I would prefer Thunderbolt 3 for scalability.

  I am aware that the cables are physically different, and 3 bolt of Lightning has adopted the USB - C standard. My question is: if I buy the cable or a suitable adapter, I'll be able to use a box Thunderbolt 3? (I know there will be no performance difference; however, it is scalability).

  Thunderbolt 3 is backward compatible with earlier versions of Thunderbolt.
