How to Run IIS 6 in 32-bit Mode on Windows Server 2003 64-bit !

You can set IIS 6 to run in 32-bit mode with the following command:

%SystemDrive%\inetpub\AdminScripts\adsutil.vbs set w3svc/AppPools/Enable32bitAppOnWin64 1

After setting IIS to enable 32-bit appilcations, the following exception may occur:

ISAPI Filter 

'c:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\aspnet_filter.dll' could not be loaded due to a configuration problem. The current configuration only supports loading images built for a x86 processor architecture. The data field contains the error number. 

To learn more about this issue, including how to troubleshooting this kind of processor architecture mismatch error, see 

http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=29349.

This is due to the fact that the .NET framework needs to be registered with IIS after enabling 32-bit mode.  Note, after enabling 32-bit mode and re-registering the framework, you will have to restart IIS.  Also, you may need to go to the Web Service Extensions and Allow the ASP.Net 2.0 (32-bit) extension.

To register the .NET framework with IIS, run the following command:

%windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_regiis -i

If you have an Android phone, you've probably installed an app or two. Wouldn't it be nice to be able to run them on your Windows PC?

And If you are frustrated with the paltry selection of apps, or a Mac OS X user who wants an Android experience without having to buy any additional hardware, BlueStacks offers a virtual Android environment, complete with access to the Google Play store. As it turns out, though, this emulator may not be worth the trouble.

Pros:

Lacks efficient multitasking;

Apps look blurry and frequently stutter;

Not all features work or function consistently

Instructions

1. Open "My Computer" or "Computer." For Windows XP, click "Start" and select "My Computer." Or, if you're using the classic Start Menu, double-click the "My Computer" icon located on the desktop. For Windows 7, click the Start Orb located in the lower left corner. Select "Computer."

2. Double-click the "Local Disk (C:)" drive, then double-click the "Windows" folder.

5. Click "The following user" radio button.

6. Open the "User name" drop-down menu and select the user account you would like to edit the HKEY_CURRENT_USER settings for. (The selection is limited to administrator user accounts only. Unfortunately, you cannot use the "Run as" command to open a program using a limited-user account.)

A shortcut menu opens. Select the type of modification you want to make. Select "Modify" from the shortcut menu if you want to modify the settings' "Value data."
