Win64 for AMD does run 32bit programs.
1. Office 2002 Pro
2. Red Alert 2 & addon Yuri's Revenge
3. Unreal Tournament GOTY edition
4. Simcity 3000

And I am sure it does many many more, but those I tested myself. g

Yes, unlike MS Win64 for AMD, Linux 64 will run 32 bit programs.

If I load a 64 bit Linux, such as SUSE, will it run both existing 32 bit

source. Most but not all. The same question for the beta XP 86-64

release.
Normal Win32 OS's did a good job running 16 programs, I am just

wondering
about the new 64 OSes?
