Makes sence. The exe could not find the OS files it needed so no go.

I would go ahead and make a ticket for it. You can find the links and stuff in the support faq

You should right click on "computer" from the start menu and select properties. Then find "system type" It should say 64-bit operating system.

Yep, you are going to need to upgrade your computer to 64 bit.

banned for not upgrading your computer

I would like to repeat, and emphasize, a previous request I made to have GC3 report in a window before going down any time it is started on a system that does not meet the minimum operating criteria. A 32bit operating system is certainly one case of many.

Knowing why it won't run on one's system is much better than having someone screaming and cussing about how bad your product is.

He doesn't have to upgrade his computer, just his OS. Computer hardware has been 64 bit for a long time now.

Better yet, in this case, would be a warning when someone is trying to actually install it that the OS doesn't meet the requirements. No point in spending the time trying to put it on your system in the first place if it's not going to work.

Better yet would be users who are aware of what they are purchasing, and not quite the universal reliance on it being someone else's fault for every mistake made.  This is the kind of mind set that leads to safety warnings not to use a hot iron on the clothes you are presently wearing. 

Better yet one karma to the next person that starts their post with "better yet"!

This is all we can do on Steam to display 64bit is required.

I think the issue might be people might not know that their version of XP isn't 64-bit
