Well you know? That sucks. Someone helped me get this laptop and I didn't think of Winamp not working for me and asking about 32 or 64 bit before buying it.

For example JAWS won't announce the next or previous track if you press b or z, for example. Just one of the reasons why I got fed up of 64 bit operating systems. I want my old functionality back, and now I have it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rhonda Scott" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, April 12, 2010 3:05 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Windows 7 64 bit problem >I wasn't able to run 32 bit Jaws on a 64 bit system. > > On another note, since I have a 64 bit machine, does this mean I can't use > Winamp? > > Rhonda > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "jim rawls" <[email protected]> > To: <[email protected]> > Sent: Sunday, April 11, 2010 5:22 PM > Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Windows 7 64 bit problem > > > Chris, Can I, with a 64 bit machine run jaws 32 bit on it?
