Hello All,

Hopefully this is the right area to ask about this but I've been trying to figure out how to install NVTDMx64 and not getting too far. I've seen it mentioned a few times in this echo so thought I'd ask. I can't seem to find any precompiled versions.... Any ideas or help is appreciated.

Thanks!
Donald

You looked at http://www.columbia.edu/~em36/ntvdmx64.html ?

It has the download links right on there. You probably want the CCPU version. --

I'll take a look at that. Found out Chrome kept blocking the download. Seem to have got it with Edge though. Thanks and I'll see what happens!

Probably Windows lying to the application for some "compatibilty mode" or something. I haven't run into that problem myself, but seems you could find someone that has (and the solution), like in the project's github issues.

I posted on github and got the answer right away. Got it to install but haven't got to try anything yet. Basically I had to delete this paragraph in install.bat:

echo ---------------------------------------------
echo Checking machine, please wait...
echo ---------------------------------------------
reg query HKLM\Hardware\Description\System\CentralProcessor\0 | Find /i "x86" >nul
if not errorlevel 1 (
echo You appear to be running this installation on a 32bit machine.
echo This NTVDMx64 is only meant to be used on an x64 machine, please use
echo NTVDM shipped with your windows installation instead.
echo Installation aborted
pause
goto fini
)
