During working with assemblers , it is necessary to distinguish this feature . In a 64 bits operating system , if 32 bits programs will be used , it is necessary to have 32 bits libraries and support by the operating system . This means that you can not execute 32 bits programs in a 64 bits operating system without such support . In the following page : http://www.duntemann.com/assembly.html read "If You Have a 64-Bit PC..." the especially . "64-Bit PC" is misleading : It should be "64-Bit Operating System" . Both Intel and AMD x86 processors mainly support both 32 and 64 bit operating systems : They are able to execute 32 and 64 bit instructions . Therefore , important points are bit size of ( 32 or 64 ) operating system , and handling capability of this feature by compilers and availability of libraries , and support by the operating system . It is necessary to have information about 64 bit assembly programming in an 64 bit operating system . http://www.amazon.com/Introduction-Intel-Assembly-Language-Programming/dp/1= 478119209/ref=3Dpd_sim_14_1?ie=3DUTF8&refRID=3D15NZ1SBWCZAMH1X6KPZG Introduction to 64 Bit Intel Assembly Language Programming for Linux: Second Edition Paperback =E2=80=93 June 23, 2012 by Benjamin Ray Seyfarth (Author) Thank you very much .
