I have purchased a new i7-620M computer with a Windows 7 Professional w/XP mode 64 Bit OS (4GB Ram).  Am I going to have a problem running Flash 10 and the Adobe Creative Suite 4?  I need to know if I should change this to a 32bit OS as my main software is Adobe.  If the 64 bit system will cause trouble is the 32bit system going to work?

    Hi, WOW, sounds like a nice system:-) Regarding the 64bit/32bit. Since Adobe Flash Player is not supported on the 64bit yet, just use the 32bit browser that is your default browser. No need to change anything with your OS. You just need to use the 32bit browser when Installing Flash Player and when viewing Flash Content. I think if you right click on the IE icon in the task bar, you have a choice? Not sure about that, hard to remember. If you can't determine that, I'm sure I have a link for that also. Just let me know.

    I don't use Creative Suite 4, but have read about it. I have a link that you may be able to take a look at for system requirements. If you were using it on your previous system and it was a 32bit system, I wouldn't see why there would be any problem. Whether you can use the 64bit browser, that I do not know.

    Hopefully that site will give you the info.
