Can't install Silverlight
« on: 06 Oct 2013, 20:54 »

So I reformatted my computer (Asus laptop with Vista service pack 2) a little while ago, and when I went to reinstall Silverlight (so I can watch Netflix), I get an error message that says my OS does not support the 64 bit version of it, even though I run a 64 bit system.  It worked just fine before I reformatted and had no problems with it.  Anyone else have this problem?

Try installing the 32 bit version?

How are you getting it?  As I recall, it's available through Windows update, and that should simply offer you the correct version for your system.
