As the title states, I'm wondering if in fact LoM and DR are 32bit. I've been testing them on my Windows XP 32bit machine, and though I have an older installers that work, the current editions have a strange error. Using the newer versions installed which prompted my question, both games turn up with the dialog box stating they are not Win32 executables. I don't have any other 32bit machines to try to see if I can replicate the error, but I can replicate this upon multiple reinstalls on the same machine.

Just with Notepad, the PE on all versions turn up L, so it would appear that dialog box is using the wrong error for the new versions to mislead me. What makes this all strange though is that I'm not seeing that this is clearly reflected on the store pages if they are 64bit (and for that matter, the minimum requirement for Windows XP is indeed listed on them at the present moment). I have considered I could be misinterpreting it if that only applies to the Mac version. PCGW however also notes they are both 32bit games, so unless all that info is inaccurate by now, I would not have known that. Hence my predicament.

So are both of these games are actually compatible for 32bit machines or not? Either case for now, I'm cutting my losses for the only LoM version I have that works. This has been a strange journey.
