D2009E 32 bits and Windows 7 64 bits

Hello.

I've now installed my D2009E 32 bits version on my new PC which has Windows7 
24 bits.
Since my customers not yet are on 64 bits I would prefere not to use a 64 
bits version of Delphi, which I expect will raise some surprises when 
porting the application to my customers 32 bits XP.
With my first application project ported from my XP 32 bits PC and with 
Delphi20009E running I get a popup message with this text:

bds.exe-bordbk120N.dll
Assertion Failure
"C!"SetThreadContextfailed")"
in ..\win32 src\thread32.cpp at line 434
Continue Execution?

If I answer Yes, it continues as normal. This seems to be an environment 
message, since it does not occour with my application running alone in 
Windows 7.
Anyway it's annoying to have this message making me wondering about the safe 
use of my application after shipping it to my customer, so I would 
appreciate any suggestion to get rid of it.
The last thing I want, is some hidden bomb blowing in my face standing there 
convincing my customer about an application worth paying for :-)

Of course you saw the typo, but some could be tempted to be funny ;-)

IME this failure occurs if the application you are debugging has more 
than one active thread when you terminate it. If only the main VCL 
thread is active when you hit Ctrl+F2, it should shutdown gracefully.

Delphi 2009 is a Win32 application, so you won't have any surprise, it's 
generating Win32 applications.
Well, the only thing could come from the program files directory. But 
that would mean you hard coded paths in your applications

I think this isn't a reason - Delphi Commodore will for sure also be a
Win32 app, but can generate Win32 and Win64 apps.

"64 bits version of Delphi," -  You wish...

Thank You Sertac.
That was right to the point what was needed.
I replaced the current bordbk120N.dll with this new one, and the problem 
vanished.

Thanks also to the rest of the tributers.
I'm sure we soon will see Delphi 64 bits :-)

As a man, Martin I think it was, said: "I have a dream". So do I.

Thanks again.

Yes, I know that. What I wanted to say is that his assumption about 
generating Delphi being 64bit because it runs on a 64 bit OS is 
inherently wrong.

Oh, so you think the challenge for 64 bit will be bloody?
Just kidding ;-)

You're welcome.
