I was thinking of upgrading my 32-bit computer to 64-bit.. so my question is do eggdrops work on 64-bit?
Thanks. |

Just do as Sir_Fz suggested. You try it and then you tell us how it went. Simple really! _________________ Add [SOLVED] to the thread title if your issue has been.

Far as I know windrop should work on 64-bit..
From Cygwin FAQ...
The Cygwin DLL currently works with all recent, commercially released x86 32 bit and 64 bit versions of Windows, with the exception of Windows CE. |

I'm wondering why you thought there'd be a problem in the first place? _________________ Add [SOLVED] to the thread title if your issue has been.

Because I was doing research on it, I googled it and ran in to a few forums where people complained their eggdrop didn't load and they was told it was because they aren't supported on 64-bit computers since eggdrop is for 32-bit computers, so I felt if I upgraded to 64 it wasn't going to work for me.
I would seriously switch back to 32bit if it didn't work because I can't give up eggdrop, I've learned alot so far and im kinda having fun with it
But you knew it would work didn't you? lol  |

Those that had problems must have had some configuration issues or hadn't installed the proper drivers their OS required.
Anyway, glad it worked.  _________________ Add [SOLVED] to the thread title if your issue has been.

That would be a Windrop issue and nothing to do with eggdrop. _________________ Add [SOLVED] to the thread title if your issue has been.
