Jump to PostYou will have to buy a 32bit version and install it. You will have to replace the 64bit version with the 32bit version, you cannot combine the 2 altho you could dual boot so that you could use either of them at one given time!

VB 2008 runs fine on x64 systems.

If re-installing with a 32bit system remember that it will only be able to address upto 3.5gig of ram. So if you have more than that you may want to consider sticking to the 64 bit system and running a 32 bit system in VM
