Tried running it/them in 'Compatibility Mode'?  That usually allows 32-bit apps to run - even a lot XP apps.  You may well find if you right click on the installers and see if there is a 'compatibility' option that solves the problem.  Worth a try.

Can you force it to install everything in the x86 programs folder - that should hold the 32-bit versions?

After that you may need a virtual machine or 'XP Mode' perhaps?

Excellent system, goodbye to diagnostic charges!

Hi Guys,

looking to get a scanner but prices on ebay vary and it seems the scanners are all the same. But can anyone recommend a link to the one they got so i know it will at least be reliable and arrive in good time?

thanks in advance

The above link works perfectly for 7 64Bit, I had mine working with it for the last 2 yrs. I've replaced my laptop this week and I'm dreading trying it with W8.
