<p class=MsoNormal>I recently received a new computer from IT, updating to a 64
bit machine running Windows XP. My current eQuest project had been crashing
with an ‘Invalid Argument’ error while simulating parametric runs. I
have now set up a second workstation in the office with a 2<sup>nd</sup> 32 bit
machine and have been able to work flawlessly on the project. I wanted to know
if anybody in the eQuest community has been able to successfully work on a 64
bit machine. My attempts to run eQuest on the 64 bit machine were:<o:p></o:p></p>
