I don't think there is a problem but I don't have a 64 bit computer here :(

thanks for the quick reply Brian...I just now learned all 64 bit system chips are not equal...seems the Intel version is ok for 32 or 64 & the AMD is only to be used with 64....I'm going to try it anyway, I'll let everyone know what's up as soon as I do...gpdc

Always thought it was the other way round, plenty of AMD64 chips running normal XP.

I run an AMD64 X2  4200+ with XP 32bit and Mach runs fine.
