Windows 64bit Version Problem with Autocad LT 32bit

[iswar.74]

I have installed my windows 7.0 64 bit version in my laptop. Now i try to install autocad LT 2010 32 bit version in my laptop. But it was not installing & showing an error. Can i install 32 bit autocad LT2010 in 64 bit windows 7.0 operating system

Some software is bit specific, meaning it's written for either 32 or 64 bit OS. You need to check with your software manufacturer to verify if this is the particular case with your program. Well after checking Auto Cad's website it looks to be the case. Now if you had the 64 bit software and wanted to run it on a 32 bit OS, it should be backwards compatible and do just that, but unfortunately it does not work the other way around.

This is for autocad lite but it may work with autocad 2010.
Run 32-bit Autocad on 64-bit system.

you should be able to install and run it on your 64Bit OS, but it may need a special loader, or "hack". Have a look here:

I understand, although it may then run in 64 Bit Windows 7, there are a couple of minor problems
