If Then for 64 bit

[itsame 0]

Hi,

I am about to send out some software to over +500 users to install. I have used auto-it to guide it through all of the customizable sections. The problem is that there is different install questions for 32 bit Windows and 64 bit Windows? Is there a if/then statement I can put into Auto-it to tell it to run 1 set of code if it is 32 bit and another set of code if it is 64 bit.

Use the @OSArch macro:

Switch @OSArch
     Case "x86"
          ; Do stuff for x86
     Case "x64"
          ; Do stuff for x64
     Case "IA64"
          ; Do stuff for IA64
     Case Else
          MsgBox(16, "Error", "Unhandled case: CPU architecture not recognized")
          Exit
EndSwitch

The macro @CPUArch Returns "X86" when the CPU is a 32-bit CPU and "X64" when the CPU is 64-bit.

The rolly-polly bird has the right answer but IMHO you can forget about using special code for the Itanium since there is no more development by Microsoft being done after Server 2008. IA64 is pretty much a dead issue now and the systems that have it will be getting swapped out fairly soon.

The macro @CPUArch Returns "X86" when the CPU is a 32-bit CPU and "X64" when the CPU is 64-bit.

Many people are running a 32-bit OS on a 64-bit capable CPU or VM. So for software installation purposes, @OSArch might be more appropriate.

Edit: And I am not "rolly-polly", I'm FLUFFY!

Ya, it seems to me that @OSArch would be more appropiate. I didn't read far enough..

I am in the process of installing virtual machines to test but, this is the code I have. Since I am new to Auto-it, I wanted to know if anybody saw a problem with this.

Again, thanks a lot for helping me with the OSArch.
