Yes, you can...

Hey Dhawal...

I have been using a very old version of the C++ compiler on my AMD system without any compatibility issues. Dont ask why, but I have also used Turbo Pascal 5.5 ( 12 yrs old) & TP 7.0 (relatively newer) on my system without any problems whatsoever...

AMD's Athlon64 processors are fully backward compatible with 32 bit applications...so anything that runs on processors from 486's to pentium 4's will run on ur athlon 64 system perfectly alright....there are no compatibility issues whatsoever
