| We are retiring our last 32 bit Windows 2003 DC. The new DC will run the 64 bit edition. Unfortunately I cannot find a 64 bit version of GPMC and the MS download page states that it will not run on 64 bit versions of Windows. Is the only solution to run the GPMC from a workstation or 32bit member server?
Thanks, Eric

| Yes. You shouldn't really be using the DC as your GP editing station anyway.

| Correct.
But you can try this :
Go to *%systemroot%System32* and copy *gepedit.msc* and *rsop.msc* to the * %systemroot%SysWOW64* folder.

| If you have mdop (From your Select agreement) you could use the Advanced Group Policy Management Console. I'm running Win7 x64 with this and it works just fine.
