Home business Server 2008 R2 Standard
Is this product 32 bit or 64 bit. I can't get a computer that I am trying to convert to server to take the disk, it keeps coming back saying I have an error, or the product is 64 bit. If it is 32 bit, will it run on a 64 bit machine? Thanks.

Hello, if it is 32 bit then normally it should run on a machine which its processor supports 64 bit OS. What I know 2008 R2 OS is only available in 64 bit version. Normally, Home Business Server 2008 R2 is also using only 64 bit version. Note that you can not run a 64 bit OS on a machine which its processor does not support 64 bit OS.
