That's the colour depth that is the "highest setting". That's just the variety of colours available on screen. The amount of bits used by the CPU/OS for address space is a different matter entirely. If it doesn't say in your system properties which it is, I'd think 32.

It should anyway. Only drivers should be picky. x64 processors should be able to run in x86 mode without issue.

From what I can tell, that's a driver installer.

Right-click your Computer icon -> Properties -> What does it say next to System type? (below Processor and Memory).

Looks like KeyLemon doesn't run on a 64bit OS quite yet. I just googled around, and the best I could find was a forum post by one of the coders, and he said, "We cannot announce now when the release for windows vista x64 will be ready. We have still to find some solutions in order to secure our code." He wrote that on Aug 24, 2009.

Secure our code? does he mean ... it's vulnerable or he doesn't want people stealing it? Either way, he sounds like a moron.

Well I guess you have a 64-bit system then.
