1) Download the service pack file that targets your PC's processor type to a
directory on your PC or server. Use the following table to determine the
directory and file name of each download:

FTP DIRECTORY FILE NAME TARGET PROCESSOR TYPE
------------- --------------- ---------------------
image32 SI35607_32.EXE 32-bit
image64a SI35607_64A.EXE AMD 64-bit, Intel 64-bit Xeon
image64i SI35607_64I.EXE Itanium

AMD more or less invented 64-bit x86. They made it easy by making x86-64
a.k.a. x64 as a supplement to 32-bit x86 instead of an entire new
architecture. AMD (like IBM) provided a path towards the future without
sacrificing legacy 32-bit support. OTOJ, Intel's initial foray into 64-bit
land was a departure from x86 and, when the market mostly failed to follow
Intel's lead, they back-tracked and put out their own implementation of
AMD's x86-64 instruction set.

You're just fine to use the "Image64a" version.

Working at a customer who recently purchased some new HP 64bit Windows 7
computers with Intel processors. We are having all sorts of problems
installing Windows7 on them. We had the latest service pack on the
iSeries
for Win7. We could not get the installer to work using Setup at all.
Then
we tried using the CWINSTALL and that wouldn't work either. Finally, we
found that we had to physically map a drive for the install to work. Then
the funny thing is that we can install the 64bit for AMD processors on the
intel processor, but we can't install the 64bit for intel processors on
the
intel processor.



Now we have the Image64a version working, but I am not comfortable with
this
as it doesn't match the processor that is in the computer. Has anyone
else
seen this?



Thanks



Pete
