32bit and 64bit software

[BCYTECH]

hi :D,

I was downloading a software (Link: https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/davinciresolve)
But unfortunately my computer is a 32bit and the software runs on a 64bit software

Any solutions?

Buy a computer that isn't from the 1900s?

Is it your OS or your computer that isn't 64 bit?

upgrade to 64bit? lol

From what I could find, the last version of DaVinci Resolve for 32 bit systems is 9.1.1. You may want to try that and see if it does what you need. Otherwise, yes, you will have to install an x64 version of your operating system if your CPU can handle 64 bits.

Is it possible to launch a 64bit software on my 32bit computer
Is there any solution?

No...

32 bit is from the 1990s, it's about time you upgrade your PC if it is 20 years old.

Why is your OS 32 bit?

 

you could maybe install a 64 bit OS in a virtual machine, never looked into it

Enderman, 32 bit processors have been in laptops, and even in some desktops up until around 2008. You can run windows on an original macbook, which is 32 bit. Still, it's time for an upgrade.

64 bit processors hit mainstream in 2003, technically x86-64 they're designed to be operated in 32 bit or 64 bit. And OS's are still made in 32 bit variety so yeah, people are still gonna do that, I mean rough estimates say that 6% of currently used computers are still running windows xp, and there's not even support for that crap anymore

 

Oh and 32 bit started in the 60s and 64 bit in the 70s, just wasn't home user status

XP was the best windows based OS of it's time. Arguably the greatest OS by Microsoft of all time, too. Calling it crap is just sheer ignorance.

It was fantastic, I used it right up to the day they cut support, now it's much more vulnerable to viruses and exploits so, great in its time, but crap now.

It's far more likely that they don't know there's a difference in technicality than them asking about a 20+ year old computer.

Thanks for all the replies guys...
I have another question in particular...Can anyone recommend me any professional editing software that can be run on 32bit OS?

Get a 64bit machine.
