Good grief. Why is dual-booting into windows to test software like that instead of running a virtual machine instance?

This. I'd never let dirty Windows touch my bare naked hardware again.

I have some legacy systems that have specific hardware requirements that don't permit them to operate under a VM, but those are like win2k and dos systems.

We have one of those. Mostly for super old inventory apps, just for parallel duplicity of one longstanding customer. We keep it behind its own dedicated firebox, because its infected with some kind of worm and has been for years. No security or inspection software seems to work on the platform anymore and the box is crap, so it don't seem worth more effort.
I think I blinked and all 32-bit/x86 support disappeared all at once.
