We're having a bit of an issue with one of our sites, written with Visual Studio 2003. When we try and view it with a browser on a 64 bit version of Windows, it freezes, and sometimes just doesn't load.
Is there an issue with 64 bit windows and any typical asp.net 1.1 controls?

Not really. ASP.NET controls render plain old HTML with some Javascript. Are you also indicating that the server is also the Windows XP x64, or that just viewing your site from an x64 computer is having problem?
If you...
Disable javascript, does the problem go away? This would indicate JS is crashing it.
Are you using Internet Explorer x86 or x64? There are two internet explorers in x64 Windows:

- C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
- C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
If you are using it as a server, then for ASP.NET 1.1 you need to enable WOW64 for IIS. This effectively runs all of your apps in 32-bit mode.The second of course is the x64 version.

Thanks for the reply.
We're using ie6 in a Windows XP 64bit environment.
Browsing to a .net 1.1 constructed web application. When trying to browse, by clicking on html links we get errors.
We disabled javascript, and we experienced issues with cnn.com and java.com too.
Upgrading to latest javascript still these sites don't work with ie6 and 64 bit.
Perhaps someone who has ie6 and a 64bit version of windows could advise what happens when they visit http://www.Optrics.com
That's the site that we have experienced issues with, in this regard.
Thanks
