XP 64 bit software Antivirus

What anti-virus software is recommended for XP 64 bit OS?

Avast is a very good AV.

And Newsgroups XP link below. http://www.avast.com/eng/whats_new_in_avast_v.html

Support for 64-bit Windows

The new avast! 4.5 home / Professional now fully supports the 64-bit Windows (avast platform! Server Edition supports Win64 (AMD64 and IA64) platforms since version 4.1). ALWIL Software anticipates an adoption of this platform as Windows XP 64 - Bit Edition will support up to 32 GB of RAM and 16 TB of virtual memory, enabling applications to run faster when working with large volumes of data. Applications can preload significantly more data into virtual memory, allowing access rapid by the 64-bit extensions to the processor. This reduces the time of loading data in virtual memory or research, reading and writing to data storage devices, applications run faster and more efficiently.

Regular (32-bit) antivirus applications are unable to operate correctly on the 64-bit Windows platform because they rely on 32-bit kernel-mode drivers. The new avast! uses 64-bit drivers natives, offering the same level of protection as in the 32-bit Windows environments. The installation package is the same for 32-bit versions and 64-bit - the Setup program automatically detects the operating system, it runs and installs all necessary files.

  • I have Windows Vista 64 bit, but I need to use a 32-bit software

    I have a new computer with Windows Vista 64-bit and I need to use a program he wrote in 32 bits. The computer maker refused to get off my computer to Windows Vista 32 bit. They offered me to return my new computer (keep restocking fees) and buy an older version of the computer that is also 64-bit, but they are allowed to downgrade it. This 32-bit software is vital for me and now I'm stuck with this useless computer.

      Can I run 32-bit programs on a 64-bit computer?
     

    Most programs designed for a computer running a 32-bit version of Windows running on a computer running 64-bit Windows versions. The notable exceptions are many antivirus programs, and some hardware drivers.

    Drivers designed for 32-bit versions of Windows do not work on computers running a 64-bit version of Windows. If you try to install a printer or other device that only has 32-bit drivers available, it won't work correctly on a 64-bit version of Windows. If you don't know if there is a 64-bit driver available for your device, go online to the Vista Compatibility Center"" href = "http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=142444" > Windows Vista Compatibility Center

  • How to install the 32-bit software on windows 7

    Recently I bought HP Pavilion p7-1234 w / Windows 7. What I peux/how install the software I used on Windows XP (32-bit)?

    AND, anyone know if I can download the version of Solitaire XP? DO NOT take care of the version of Solitaire that came with Win 7.

    I don't know about anyone else, but I find Win 7 to be less friendly than XP.

    Thank you all for all entries. I have everything to the top and work. My biggest problem was getting mode XP win7 to work, which turned out be some Windows options that have been disabled. Don't ask which ones that, because someone else that I got it to work.

    For those who have tried to help w / Lotus 1-2-3 v4.1 (and it's lotus 1-2-3 for DOS, 16-bit), I was able to load only mode PC win7 XP virtual, as I got it when I was running XP on my old machine. I can't answer if can be said for other application programs designed for DOS.

    I FINALLY reach someone at microsoft technical support, and he said that win7 (64 bit) will work with software SOME 32-bit even without going through the XP mode. He could not say if that was true for all 32-bit software, but I was able to load some of mine even b4 I got XP mode works (edition of Lotus Smart Suite Millennium & Kodak Easyshare).

    Hope that this info any help in the future.

    Yes it is. You can run the XP compatibility mode if you have Win 7 Professional or ultimate edition.

  • 32-bit Windows 7-64 bit software up and running?

    I plan to get a new laptop with 64-bit, Windows 7 Professional.

    Can you tell me if I do not receive 64-bit, I still will be able to load all my packages of 32-bit software on a Windows 7 64 bit and will they run right with Windows 7 64 bit?

    Thanks for any response.

    Hi all

    In general most 32-bit applications will work correctly in a 64-biit operating system, but there are some exceptions.  You also need to consider hardware compatibility with a 64-bit operating system.  A simple way to check if your hardware and your applications will work would be to check the Windows 7 Compatibility Center:
    http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/compatibility/Windows-7/en-us/default.aspx

    Since the Compatibility Center, you can search your hardware and your applications by name and the 32-bit and 64-bit compatibility.

    In addition, the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor can be used to check your system for hardware and application compatibility.  Upgrade Advisor will scan your system and checks in general for possible compatibility with Windows 7 and then issues offers advice on how to solve them.
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/downloads/Upgrade-Advisor

    Applications that have compatibility problems more often are what are called kernel mode applications and legacy 16-bit applications.  Examples might include older versions of applications based on the BACK, the anti-virus applications, old material that is not 64-bit capable.  In view of the very broad ecosystem of applications and hardware, I strongly recommend that you use the Compatibility Center and upgrade advisor to help make the decision.

    I hope this helps! Shad Larsen

  • How to install the 32-bit software on my Windows 7 Home Basic 64-bit?

    I use the family Windows 7 Edition Basic 64-bit. Now I want to install a 32-bit program (software of Rockwell RSView32) which works well on Windows XP Service Pack 2, but the installation of the program Wizard does not open in my Windows 7 Home Basic 64-bit. I tried the shooter of compatibility issues. Even he couldn't help me.

    What should I do to install RSView 32? Can someone help me?

    Thank you...

    Usually 32-bit software installs correctly on a 64-bit system, however, some applications are unspecific and if so, even in compatibility mode is unlikely to succeed

  • Solution Windows 7 64-bit 32-bit software

    I use Windows 7 Home Basic 64-bit OS, in this home, I am unable to install 32-bit software. What should I do

    Could you identify the name and version of the software you are trying to use Windows 7?

    See the developers website for compatibility with Windows 7 and if there are updates, corrections or difficulties that might ensure compatibility.

    The software is designed for an earlier version of Windows such as Windows XP? Most older programs don't work with Windows 7, in particular some programs for Windows XP, can you need to perhaps upgrade to Windows 7 Professional or ultimate edition if you run not an edition and download the Windows XP Mode free program which will allow you run old programs:

  • Can I run 32-bit software on 64-bit hardware/OS

    original title: 32-bit software but 64-bit hardware/OS

    Y at - it a fix for AutoCad (32-bit) Windows 7 (64-bit).  AutoCad does not have a solution, but I was wondering if there is something I can do with the OS (64-bit) to be able to use my 2005LT (32-bit) AutoCad.  Wouldn't be better to buy an updated release of AutoCad?  Can't wait to spend the money because the 2005 Version has everything I need.

    Your version of Autocad is compatible with win7?, and depending on the version of win7 you can have the Windows XP compatibility mode

    It usually makes no difference with a 32-bit application, it should run on a 64-bit operating system, for example, the 32-bit version of Office works well on win7 64-bit, even if it is a version for which a 64-bit one is available (2010)

  • 32-bit software with the CCfT license license

    Is it possible to use a creative cloud for teams license to activate the older, 32-bit software versions? Specifically, we seek to install the 32-bit versions of Lightroom and Premiere Pro, which I believe would be LR5 and PPro CS4 respectively.

    Which is unique only up to the CS6, Lightroom 5 is also included in the archive. You can check: system requirements for lightroom 5.

    We have CC 2015, CC2014, CC and CS6, a part of the creative cloud.

  • Virtual 64-bit Software

    Hey guys, I am quite new to this, but would be very grateful for the help.

    I have Windows Server 2008 x 64 installed and vmware server 2.0 on it, but when I tried to install any software x64Bit on it he says that my processor does not support or is not compatible with the 64-bit mode.

    All my 32 bit software works very well, but I need to create a virtual server with mode x64bit to test my software on it.

    Does anyone have some advice for me

    What I'm doing wrong!

    Hi Tommy,.

    Yes, which indicates that you have installed the 32-bit version of VMWare server. No worries for the 64-bit version, it works quite stable (using myself here in the Office on 64-bit Windows but also Ubuntu 8.04 and 9.04 two 64-bit).

    Hello

    Yes you can install 32-bit software without problem on a windows 64-bit OS. (not supported after 11.1.1.3 2008)
    Version 11.1.1.3 most products are still 32-bit (with the exception of the Regional service) so it may be interesting to stick with 32-bit web logic.

  • After the update 42, partial load in memory (Task Manager), but the software antivirus keeps thread bound to perform but only loads 2nd & subsequent.

    Manager tasks shows Firefox loaded as a service, but a of threads waiting to complete. There is no application shown in the Task Manager (which seems reasonable that Firefox has not loaded).
    There is no error message. The 'circle of rotation of microsoft"is going for a few seconds, then disappears as if the schedule.
    It happens after 2nd & subsequent charges after reboot. Firefox seems to work the first time after reboot. It happened only after upgrade to 42. Clean installation makes no difference. Chrome works OK
    Worked well up until the 42 update. Tried to do a clean install with the box to inform Mozilla erased.
    Maybe Firefox started using a port that is blocked by the antivirus? I don't get no logging for the virus scanner showing what it to be blocked. A comprehensive analysis reveals nothing.
    Operating system is Windows 10 (64-bit)

    Abandoned trying to actually find what is actually happening. Changed software virus scanner.
    I think (and this is just a guess) is that to integrate with windows update update 42 change the output method to the telemetry file the antivirus does not. It is perhaps that the antivirus cannot manage that file or property, but it does not record the fact, a failure of the antivirus.
    There is a hint of doubt in my mind when an upgrade causes a system that works to fail in a non traceable method.
