I read somewhere on-line that etrex 30 is incompatible with Windows 64 bit programs?????????????

Any support program from Garmin that is designed to run on a 32-bit Windows machine should run fine on both 32-bit and 64-bit systems, as 64-bit systems have a compatibility mode that lets them run programs compiled for 32-bit systems. The program just won't run as efficiently in compatibility mode, but should perform adequately.

Not sure what this means. I have Windows 64-bit running BaseCamp, and it works fine with my Etrex 30. I'm not sure what sort of compatibility you're referring to.

hi. honestly, i'm not sure. i haven't used it in a long time - since i was on xp which was 32bit. i'm running win8 64 now but i've never installed the drivers. it's kinda too cumbersome to be of good use as a note taking device for me. but usually, 32bit drivers work fine for 64bit with stuff like this (that's not graphics or resource intensive).

I don't know. I'm using it on a laptop that uses Win-7 32 bit. It wouldn't surprise me if it did work with 64 bit.

I'm currently using it on Windows 7 64-bit. I think Windows even loaded a generic joystick driver and it works perfectly in games.

Scotti; I was told that it would work on my 7/64, 'It did not' my key worked, then the program crashed.I regret the purchase. Hope this helped.JL.

There are no 64 bit drivers. One of the reviews posted said that the Pentax rep said that they have no plans for any. You might want to consider a different scanner if you think you will have any plans to replace your PC within the useful life of this scanner. Otherwise, you will be buying scanners twice. It would probably be cheaper to buy a compatible product now.

My own experience is that printing to the MX860 after upgrading to Win 7 64 bit from Vista Home Premium 64 bit was AOK BUT the scanner won't work with Win 7.

im running games for xp in compatibility mode. on win 8 64. many just seem to be more reliable with compatibility selection. only problem i've had, which was easily resolved was one made only for vista. Worms armaggedon and Master of Orion 2 were made for 95. I updated worms to make it work right. win 7 games work fine on win 8. I prefer using desktop on win 8. the start screen is a little gimicky, but alt tab is the only key combo i need.

I could not get it to work with my system with Windows 7, 64 bit. I am using it on a Windows 8, 64 bit laptop. Sorry I coul not help.

Yes, I have been running it on W7 64bit since it came out.Just clean out the old drivers, go to their site and download new drivers.

Yep. I am currently using Windows 8 64bit and it works perfectly, but I looked for the driver and it is installed under the system32 folder, so even though it works without any problems, it is still 32bit.

I installed a 64 bit os on it and it works but it also works with 32 bit..64 bit is backwords compatable fyi

It definitely is Windows 7 64 bit compatible. It's. Not as good with Windows 8, but still works. I'm not sure exactly how quality it is, as I only use it for in game chat, but none of my friends online complain when we're playing. I sometimes have a hard time adjusting the sensitivity so it doesn't hear my keyboard and still picks up my voice, but I think that's a personal problem because I'm very soft spoken with a mechanical keyboard

I have mine working well on Windows 8 64 bit so I don't see why it wouldn't work well on Windows 7 as well.
