You have to edit the Windows system Registry in order to fool the system into running 32 bit IE8 in Vista SP2 compatibility mode-see the details below.Ģ) The QuickTime Plugin for Windows IE is a 32 bit plugin. OK, setting compatibility mode to Vista SP2 worked for 32 bit IE 8 and 32 bit Opera-and it would probably work for Safari, Firefox and Chrome (all 32 bit) as well, but I didn't test those as I'm using HTML5 tags on the web page.ġ) 64 bit Windows 7 does not allow you to set the compatibility mode of Internet Explorer 8 by using the file or shortcut Properties menu or by using the Application Compatibility Wizard. In case someone doesn't know, 64 bit Windows 7 comes with both 32 bit IE8 and 64 bit IE8.
