    As of PrPro CS 5, it is ONLY a 64-bit program, requiring a 64-bit OS to install/run. Going back to CS 5, if one had the Production Premium suite, PrPro CS 4 (32-bit) was included. I do not recall any 32-bit versions of any of the Production Studio, or Master Collection, being included with CS 6.

    It is an OS upgrade, or nothing.

    Good luck,

    Hunt

    Alright, Thank you 3 both. Now I hve one final question on this forum.

    Can you get a laptop with a 64-bit operating system, and if so, how does it handle, compared to a 32-bit? e.g. Faster, slower, runs hotter etc. (I know there are a lot of variables in that, but just in general.)

    Thanks!

    Reese,

    The system you currently have is very outdated. I had a similar outdated server (2004) here that died the other day and the only solution was to get a new one. It made no sense to replace parts, the costs would have been too high in relation to getting it back up on its feet, so I decided to get a new server. You are in a somewhat similar situation. One of these days your system will die of old-age. Well, that is the major risk of being born, sometime in the future you will die. Being born is deadly, just like smoking if we believe the statements on cigarette packs.

    The best approach I can offer is to start saving for a new system. Let your old system run as it is, don't invest time or money to keep it going. Instead have a look at some of the FAQ articles, like Adobe Forums: What PC to build? An update...

    Another way to show you about planning for the future is here: Planning and Buiding a new NLE system.

    My editing system is getting pretty old and I know I need to replace it sometime in the (not too distant) future, so I plan ahead and consider all my options. Sure, this is not a system for everybody and likely it will end up in the € 7 K range, but I show it to give you an example of how you might go about building a new system.

    I realize you may not be up to speed with all the technical jargon, but if you take your time reading these pages, it may help you to get acquainted with the basics you need to know for a new system.


    I found something related to Windows 7 being ok running CS4 hope it's accurate

    I started looking I can get a Dell XPS again the 8500 model that should do all I need it to do here where I'm at.

    I'll look into your links

    I get these ideas that I need to improve something then find it hard to hold myself back.

    31 is something I found tested link

    As Jim stated, an emphatic NO. Premiere Pro CS6 is 64-bit exclusive, and thus requires an entirely 64-bit system (CPU and OS). If your system has only a 32-bit OS installed, Premiere Pro versions since CS5 will not even install at all, let alone run at all, on that system. The last version of Premiere Pro to support Windows x32 was CS4.

    It will not even install on a 32 bit OS.  You must have 64 bit Windows.

    It does seem to be running just fine under Windows 8.
