I want to download XAMPP for my windows 64-bit machine. But officially, XAMPP is only available for a 32-bit windows machine.
So, is it fine if I use 32-bit windows XAMPP version for my 64-bit windows machine or is there a way to get the 64-bit windows XAMPP version?
Thank you for your time!
Yes, it's fine.
A 32 bit build will run fine on 64 bit Windows.
Php and Apache don't have official supported 64 bit Windows builds, only MySql out of the three does, hence no 64 bit bundle.
it possible to run 32 bit XAMPP on 64bit machine. it is all fine, so far there is no 64 bit XAMPP application. personally I use 32 bit XAMPP server on 64bit windows 10 machine. it works fine for me.
Yes and no.
Yes, XAMPP will run and install on a 32-bit Windows.
No, because if you want to maximize XAMPP's use of RAM, your OS will run out of that same RAM. Hence, it may make sense to host it on a 64-bit Windows, say allocate it with 6gb of RAM for OS and other uses.
is it fine if I use 32-bit windows XAMPP version for my 64-bit windows machine
Yes! I have just downloaded 32-bit XAMPP version for windows-10, because I have not got version for 64-bit windows-10, It works fine for the applications. I am running framework known as Laravel and Codeigniter for developing php web applications. There is no any issue.
is there a way to get the 64-bit windows XAMPP version?
No ! As per my experience-- I have not got 64-bit XAMPP for windows-10.
Conclusion - You can download 32-bit XAMPP version for windows-10 and can use it without any issues.
The issues you may run into on windows using 32bit PHP (as all parts of XAMPP will be 32bit) is with any numbers larger than 32bit
For instance the ip2long() functions will return negative numbers instead of positive integers for some larger computed IP addresses.

I was trieng to download xampp server for my 64 bit machine. But in apachefriends.org site I am not getting 64 bit version. I wanted to check whether 32 bit version will work fine in 64 bit or not. And also kindly suggest if u know any link to download 64 bit version of xamp.
32-bit XAMPP works well on a 64bit machine but has RAM limitations. I was unable to find a 64-bit XAMPP but there's a Windows equivalent called WAMP. You can download it from here.
It is 64 bit.
I have recently converted My visual studio solution to 64 bit from 32 bit. But, I have 1 machine which is running Windows Server 2003 (32 bit).Can I deploy and run these newly built 64 bit dlls on this 32 bit machine?
Basically, the answer is no.
If the underlying hardware is 32-bit, then it definitely won't support 64-bit instructions.
If the hardware is 64-bit (and the OS is just 32-bit), it's possible in theory, but would require the kernel to not only setup a 64-bit code segment, but to also setup 64-bit paging (I think). Since I doubt the 32-bit Windows kernel supports either of these, then it's not possible.
Yes you can using third party software like

BUT don't expect much from the performance!
I have a driver that needs to be installed from a virtual drive. I am able to install this driver (*.sys) from the normal directory, but when I try to install it from a virtual drive it does not happen. Is there any constraint on installing Windows device drivers from virtual drives?
I think installing drivers from virtual drives on Windows XP is possible.
I am using Windows 7, both x86 and x64 versions.
If you're using two different bit versions of windows from your actual windows and your virtual machine. Say that in your virtual machine is windows x64 and your actual windows is x86. The 64 bit version of the driver would not be compatible with the 32 bit version of windows.
After a hell lot of effort, I found that Antivirus is the issue. The setup should not give any error while installing. Please run as administrator when you run the setup and turn off antivirus if any.
Turning vmci0 value to false is not at all a good approach
I have a developed a C++ application using 32 bit and it create a executable file. This project has uses some external library like window socket 32bit, Qt GUI and boost library. The dll is located at same directory with the executable.
I wonder how can i run this application on window 7.
MY window 7 version is Home Premium 64 bit. Therefore, i cannot install the XP mode from Virtual PC but some one them reported that using Sun virtual box is functional.
I have try to troubleshoot the executable file using program compatibility but the problem doesn't solve.
Any program that can check external dependencies and identified the issues of running my program on window 7 ?
Please help.
Thanks.
64 bit editions of windows can run 32 bit applications fine. You just need to install the 32 bit versions of the needed libraries and it will work.
I need to use Visual Studio 2005 (C++) on my new laptop - a Sony Vaio with Windows 7 64bit..
I don't need to develop for a 64bit environment, my work is all 32bit, so how can I be sure that I can still develop/debug/test for a 32bit target environment using VS2005 on a 64bit machine....?
What's the best option:
1) Just install VS2005 on Windows 7 64bit and carry on.. (suspect problems with 64bit runtime libs..?)
2) Dual boot the laptop with Windows XP 32bit.
3) Run some kind of Virtual Machine with Windows XP in it... (I don't have a VM yet, but would look into it)
Thanks
The answer is 1) you just need to make sure that you target processor is 32bit. You can develop for 32bit machine on a 64bit machine and vice versa.
After some looking around it looks like you must have up to date service packs. Read http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vstudio/aa948853.aspx if you want to know more.
Visual Studio includes both 32-bit and 64-bit compilers and tools.
You can install VS on Windows 7 x64 and develop 32-bit applications without any problems.
(Just don't do something insane like hard-coding "C:\\Program File (x86)\\")
As the others have pointed out, both the 64 bit and 32 bit versions of VS can target both 64 bit and 32 bit runtime environments. Further you can use either the 64 or 32 bit versions of Windows 7 (obviously the 64 bit version of VS requires 64 bit Windows, but VS 32 bit runs on either).
But you have a second part to your question, debug/test on 32 bit. Depending on the kinds of applications you build, testing under Windows 7 64 bit alone may not be sufficient. You may want to test in a Windows XP virtual machine running under Windows 7, or in certain cases you may need a real 32 bit computer to test on.
