Whatever will be the answer on the question above, you do not have to worry much about the question below :) GAP for Windows is supplied with compiled cvec binary, which is built using the 32-bit Cygwin installation. So you're running the 32-bit version of GAP anyhow. I have no information at the moment what will happen if one will install 64-bit version of Cygwin and compile GAP and some packages there - hopefully it will work. If anyone would like to try, call these commands first: ./configure make cygwin and then to build some packages (with kernel modules) call cd pkg/Browse ./configure make cd .. cd cvec-* ./configure make cd .. cd edim ./configure make cd .. cd io-* ./configure make cd .. cd orb-* ./configure make Best wishes Alexander > > I have installed newest GAP 4.7.5.
