I'm looking at upgrading my DAW which would be using Windows 7 in 64 bit. I assume BIAB 2011 is ok with that? Thanks.

Only casualty is the VSC DXi will not run in any 64 bit operating system. There are others to use though.


I do not work here, but the benefits are still awesome

Runs great, John.

Also, since I installed my Windows 7 64-bit on an SSD boot drive, I have not had even one BSOD in nine months!

Yes. There are several threads here already about BiaB and Windows 7 / 64-bit if you want to search back.

An additional side note - it also doesn't matter which folder BiaB is installed in.
You don't have to use the Program Files x64 (or whatever it's called).
It will work from any folder.
Or, as I do now, straight from the hard drive.

John,

If you have any peripherals or other software that you will be wanting to use on the new system, it would also pay to check and see if 64-bit drivers are available or if the items are happy in a 64-bit environment.

Regards,
Noel
