How can i run a 32bit program on a 64 bit windows 7

[joebotte]

i have an external a drive (3 1/2 floppy) and i am trying to run a 32 bit program on windows 7 it says that the program is not compatible because it is 32 bit

Could you give more details on the program? 32 bit programs should run just fine.

Also try right click and run in compatibility mode.

I have never had any 32bit program or game that would not run on Windows 7 64bit.
What program are you running?

 

[rgd1101]

a 32bit program that fix on a floppy disk(1.44 MB). What the exact error message?

Sounds like it's actually a 16bit program. which won't run (without an emulator) e.g. dos box

if it still on floppy it big chance it still use 16 bit/dos.... (as aab said emulator is needed)

normally 32bit will run fine in win7 x64........

except very old program like yours, unfortunately....
