You'll have to run XRY in a 32-bit VM.

Haven't had issues on the main two systems or field units...that I know of. There have been quirks but have not narrowed to anything in particular. 64 bit is an issue with certain cell phone acquisition/analysis packages so we have had to run in VM's which can have own issues with dongles and/or USB.

Thanks for the feedback. I have already destroyed all of my HP printers Smile

I have had some issues with tools for indexing large data sets on my 64 bit Win7 installation. No such issues with the 32 bit.

I have not had any issues with FTK or Encase 6.18 on my Win 7 Pro 64bit machine on my Dell XPS 15 or my DIY workstation. Given how bulky the XPS 15 is, I'd hate to lug around the XPS 17 as a mobile workstation. Very Happy
