Trouble installing

I'm trying to install arch but it's giving me the message
Your CPU doesn't support long mode. Try a 32-bit distribution.

I used the Archlinux-x86_64-2007.08-2.core.iso file to make the cd

Re: Trouble installing

You need the x86_32 version if your processor isn't 64-bit (which I suppose it isn't).

IMHO you won't miss a 64-bit OS too much right now.

Re: Trouble installing

I thought what I downloaded is the 32-bit version.

Could you post a link to the correct version for me?
