Further question reg. Attract Mode and 32-bit Windows
« on: December 11, 2017, 06:56:17 PM »
Does anybody know if the latest version of AM freezes up randomly running on 32-bit Windows 7?  Still trying to resolve this issue (currently running on 32-bit WinXP SP3) and I believe this particular PC would run Win7 okay, but not necessarily the 64-bit version.  Don't really want to go spend $50 on a Win7 product key and find myself encountering the same problem as I am now.  If it is still an issue with any 32-bit OS, I will spend the $$ towards a new(er) PC for my cabinet.

Thanks,
Eric

@erzak
your Win7 x86 key authorized you, to install Win7 x64. Deactivate your current Win7 x86 key > install Win7 x64 > activate your former licence key. Here
AM Version : 2.6.1
Input : Mad Catz Brawlstick; Mouse; Keyboard; Xbox360 Wireless
Cabinet : Yes
OS : Windows10 Pro

The only Win7 product key that I have is on another computer that was updated to Win10, and it was an OEM-provided key.  So I don't think that would work to de-activate and then try and use it on another PC.
