My laptop is 64 bit but a program that I have to download pictures from my camra will only down load on 32 bit. what can I do to change this to down load the pics

which program? there should be a 64 bit version.

also, i don't think this'll work but try running it in xp compatibility mode. (right click on installer, properties, compatibility tab, check off 'run this prgm in compatibility mode')

32bit programs will run on a 64bit OS, so what does this have to do with graphic cards?

@mousemonkey
A lot of installers won't let you install their 32 bit versions if they have a 64 bit version.
i think notepad++ is an example of this.

and yes, this should be moved.

edit: nope, nvm notepad++ only has one installer. must be another prgm i'm thinking of.

I currently have 27 32bit programs installed on my 64bit OS as not all programs have a 64bit version.

i agree with mousemonkey. only 16 bit programs do not work without emulation. There may be some cases where you need a Driver to be 64 bit for things to work properly. either way what does this have to do with Bansaw????? A camera should be detected automatically by the OS, shouldnt even need a drver or particular software.
