Steve, I don't have an answer for you (beyond my limited expertise!) but I 
am wondering if all Win 7's come with two start ups?  And, if so, could I 
leave it that way and use the 32 bit start up to run my older programs?  Any 
ideas on that?  I was considering a dual boot and having XP still there as 
an option to run the programs but this sounds like a better alternative (if 
it is indeed an alternative).
Hope G comes out of hiding to answer this one for us!  Just kidding.  I am 
sure there are others on the list who can shed light on this issue.
Sandi
