My windows drive was locked with bitlocker, now I can't unlock it.

I had a 80 GB drive which windows was installed in it, so I locked with bitlocker.

He was works very well with my laptop, but when my laptop was damaged, I connected my hard drive to another computer to be used as an external drive, that drive what windows was installed in is locked.

When I try to unlock it, it is said: the encryption on this drive is not compatible with your version of windows. Try to open the drive in a newer version of windows.

.

The version of windows on both computers are the same WINDOWS 8. only the old laptop has 32 - bit and this news is 64-bit.
