64 vs 32 bit Vista

    64 vs 32 bit Vista

    I am getting a Unable to load DLL exception when running  my Media Center App in 64bit Vista.  I do not get this error when running on 32-bit.

    The DLL is a 32bit DLL that is called like any VB API call

    Declare Function myAPICall  Lib "My32bitDLL.DLL" () As Integer

    If I write a windows forms app and make this call under x64 Vista it works fine.

    The dll is located in the C:\Windows\SysWOW64\  Folder.  In 32bit windows it is located in C:\Windows\System32

    Does this have to do with it being an asembly registered in the GAC?

    Do I need to place my DLL in a specific directory for this to work under 64-Bit?

    Anyone else seen this?
