Running Windows 7 In 32 Bit Mode

[KRS1]

I have some videos i have to convert from FLV into MP4, the program i use is "super' convertor but only runs in 32 bit mode.

My OS is windows 7 64 bit, is there any way to run in 32 bit mode then revert back to 64 bit?

or does anyone know of another video convertor program thats free?

The programme should still run on a 64bit OS. I have 64 bit Win7 and all my 32bit programmes install and run perfectly.

Have you tried it?

[Supernova]

Have you tried to run the program or just assuming it won't work? Windows 64-bit is backwards compatible with most 32-bit programs. Right-click the program icon and select "Run as Administrator", or try launching the program in Compatibility Mode.

yep it wont work.

Have a look in this thread regarding Win XP mode, should allow you to run your software

Meanwhile, what error do you get on your 64 bit system when you run Super Converter?

SUPER © v2011.build.48 (April 23, 2011) works on Windows 7 (32 bit) and Windows 7 (64 bit)

Ref: http://www.downloadc...cle/12207-super

There is a possibility Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime has not been installed correctly or you have a bogus version of SUPER © v2011. Uninstall both the Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime and SUPER © v2011.

Make sure you download and install SUPER © v2011 from eRightSoft:

Handbrake is the best video converter, a bit old school but works like a charm.

But, it's not Windows 7 compatible (only Windows XP, Vista)

Not even in "compatibility mode"?

[BB1950]

Okay, I stand corrected.

Just converted 274 FLV videos without issue with Super. Had to adjust the output shells though. Tried AVS4U and it can't compare to Super.

Only glitch is, it ask for admin privileges at start up,but i just say no and it still works. Could be do to my security settings.

Super is an useful piece of software although honestly, it's nothing much more than a very, very confusing front-end to mencoder and ffmpeg, but its author seems completely insane to me

His web site must win the Internet Award for the most difficult download link to find on a web site. And the never-ending colorful verbiage is mind-boggling.
