Hello,
I have a 32 bit dongle that won't run on the new 64 bit machines. Is there a simple fix for this?

Like a usb dongle not being detected or..... like a security device?

In theory USb doesnt care about the Bit size of an OS and should run fine on both 32 or 64 bit machines.

Some security devices do run a bit of software that verifies the machine and product key. In this case you will most likely have to contact the vendor, modifying security keys could void you warranty and probably not make the vendor happy.
