Different architectures are incompatible; they need separate installation programs. You will need to choose the right one (and choose the corresponding Debian installation manual). You will need to know the “architecture” of your machine; this is a term roughly meaning “what is the CPU in the machine”. For a machine on which you are running MS Windows, the architecture is almost certainly “64-bit PC (amd64)”. -- \ “Anyone who puts a small gloss on [a] fundamental technology, | `\ calls it proprietary, and then tries to keep others from | _o__) building on it, is a thief.” —Tim O'Reilly, 2000-01-25 | Ben Finney
