Fellow I have just downloaded the Windows 7 64-bit RC. I used the Deamon Tools and mounted the ISO file of Win7 RC and copy its contents to a Harddisk. Previously I was using Vista 32 bit & not when I click the setup a message pops up saying "The version of this file is not ompatible with the version you are running & check whether you need 64 or 32 bit." Please tell what is the pronlem now.
📎 AI Summary:
The thread discusses a user attempting a clean installation of Windows 7 64-bit RC after encountering a compatibility error when running setup from a mounted ISO, which is due to attempting to install a 32-bit OS over a 64-bit system. The responder suggests that the user needs to either download the correct 32-bit version or perform a clean install, advising creating a bootable DVD or USB drive and formatting the drive before installation. Overall, the conversation clarifies that the issue arises from mismatched system and installation file architecture, and offers solutions for a successful clean install.
