I would like to know if it is possible to install HM on my new Windows 7 x64 partition and use the database that is on my Windows XP 32bit partition. If so, how do I make that work?

If not, would it be possible if they both were 32 bit or 64bit?

I have forwarded this thread to the support manager for a reply.

This should be possible, just make sure you put the PostgreSQL data folder to a different partition

You mean on a third partition?

Yes thats what he means.
Just one more word: allthough Fabio said it should work you are leaving the environments we can support when you try this. And i personally think this is a more than instable solution and even if it works in the beginning i'm pretty sure you will loose your data sooner or later.

In that case, I won't try it.
