I have just got a  P4/2.9G computer
it seems that my old 32bit(i386) software can't run on it
it needs 64-bit software

Shall I choose CD image from ia64?
Thanks!


Hi Long Wind,

IA-64 architecture is for Intel Itanium processors.

Pentium 4 processor is a desktop processor and it's 32-bit or 64-bit.The official name for 64-bit desktop processors is AMD64, but there area lot of synonyms like x86_64, Intel EMT-64, x64, 64-bit PC, etc.

If your processor is 32-bit then download i386 CD image, but if yourprocessor is 64-bit then you can download amd64 CD image or the old i386(32-bit) architecture.


Best regards
Georgi
