Good to know, although I wasn't seriously thinking of trying it. Several of my apps, especially Office) are still 32-bit. Actually, if you install JAWS from the disk, you can't go wrong; the right version comes up by default, and you'd have to really work at it to attempt to do it wrong.

Subject: Re: authorizing jaws on a flash drive on a computer: Ted: You most definitely cannot install a 32 BIT version of JAWS on a 64 BIT system. If you attempt to do so, JAWS displays a message informing you that you need to run a 64 BIT version of JAWS. I know this because, when I purchased my 64 BIT HP Laptop, I accidentally launched the 32 BIT version of JAWS from my thumb drive.
