IIS6 must enable 32 bit apps for CF 8.0.1 Standard?

Wondering if anyone has had to enable 32 bit applications on IIS6 to get CF 8.0.1 working?

Had an issue this morning with getting CF8 running on Windows server 2003 x64. I kept getting Internal Server Error 500 (everyones favorite error!).
Knowing that CF 8.0 Standard wont run in 64 bit mode i installed the 8.0.1 updater. Still the same Internal Server Error. Looked in the IIS logs and noticed the error code 500 0 193 on my requests for the CF admin. Strange.. I couldnt even get a .htm page to display on any website on my server.. Still the dreaded 500. Eventually i set IIS6 to enable 32 bit applications. BAM. Worked and was able to get into the CF admin and get respoonses from cfm pages.

Does this mean my CF8 is running in 32 bit mode??? If so.. Is there any way to sort this out and get it running in 64 bit mode?

    Standard does not support 64-bit. If you want 64-bit you must get Enterprise.
