32/64 Bit

Post by Trigrhappi »

Hi, new to the community and I just downloaded all the addons/mods for this BF2 but when I got to install it gives me system operation error due to me being on a 64 bit platform. Is there any updates for the 64 users or another place for me to download them?

Have a look in the PR Support Forums chap.

Although I can think of no reason why you wouldn't be able to use it on a 64bit OS, I am on the same and can use it just fine. Possibly a corrupted download, but the tech guys will be able to help more.

Works fine on 64-bit, no issues at all for me (Windows 7, 64-bit). It's a 32-bit application, hence the message. If you really get an error, try to set compatibility-mode to XP service pack 3, then run the installer and off you go.

Still problems, try the support forums. Hope it helps!

Getting a message about it not being a valid application for x64 systems or whatever is caused when the installer is corrupt. Grab the torrent, open it up in your torrent application, when it asks you where to save to, save it to where your corrupt installer is, and it'll recheck it and redownload the corrupt bits :) .

No mate, change it from Ultra High with Xfi to High with Xfi.

You don't loose anything noticable.
