Greetings--
Atlantis runs on all 32-bits Windows platforms.
As we understand things, "Windows 3.51" is actually "Windows NT 3.51".
Atlantis runs on Windows NT systems.
There should not be any problem.
Cheers

As I know, the latest version of Windows is "Windows XP SP2". Never heard about the new 64-bit version.

Re: Windows 64-bit Edition

Greetings--
Please have a look at
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/64bit/default.mspx
and
http://www.winsupersite.com/showcase/win64.asp

Here are excerpts from the above page:
"The 64-bit Windows roadmap includes products for both the client and the server. These products are being developed alongside their 32-bit brethren, Windows XP and Windows 2002 Server, and will be released at the same time. "They target different markets," said Brian Marr, the Product Manager for Windows XP 64-bit edition. "The 64-bit products are targeted at the technical workstation market, while the 64-bit servers target the high-end of the server market. They are not overlapping with the 32-bit line."
"On the client, Microsoft is offering Windows XP 64-bit Edition, which is roughly equivalent to the 32-bit version of Windows XP Professional. Like Server, a pre-release version will be available on Itanium hardware that ships this summer, and the final version of Windows XP 64-bit Edition will ship on October 25 with the 32-bit Home and Professional Editions. "It's not for everyone," Marr said. "Technical workstation users that need advanced memory support and better floating point performance will be well served by Windows XP 64-bit Edition. It provides the highest performance and scalability for those customers that are pushing today's 32-bit capabilities. But we're recommending that most users stay on the 32-bit platform for the foreseeable future."
As I understand things, Atlantis should run on these platforms without any problem. But obviously, Atlantis does not require such advanced performance from your system! :D

It was just a general question. I am far away from replacing my w98-pc by something on which a 64bit-os could run :)

Will probably run with the 32-bits emulation of Win64.
Could be buggy though.
