Apologies if I've missed something obvious, but I did not see any mention of x64 support on Windows, the installation I've attempted has swank in the inferior-lisp buffer complaining "not on this operating system", but if it is x64 that is killing it maybe it should be a little more explicit. More importantly, we all know Windows is transitioning to x64 only, so does this mean SLIME lacks the resources to produce the x64 version? I am beginner with SLIME and have no idea why it won't run in 32 bit emulation, since it does not need to link to anything heavy, just to provide some socket/pipe service it seems.
Thanks!

You have be a bit more specific. What Lisp implementation are you using? If your Lisp doesn't run on Win64 then you obviously have a problem which isn't SLIME's fault. If the Lisp runs fine outside of Emacs it's probably a SLIME problem but it's impossible to tell without more details.
