IA X12 installation works only on x64 OS's

I have switched from IA X6 to IA X12 and rebuild the project that formerly worked on both x64 and x86 OS's but now it fails on x86.
It complains that the application needs x64 OS.
What needs to be changed to allow the installer to work on both OS types?
Best regards,

I don't think this behavior depends on the switch from X6 to X12, honestly.
Can you please post a screen-shot of the error?

This should come out from your setup script ...due the presence of something similar in your code:

I suggest you to check also the application runtimes consumed by your project. It may be possible that you are including a RTM package which is designed for the x64 platform only.

Thank you Francesco.
The problem lay actually in the VS dependable that got included and was the only thing that has changed.
In the top of the checkvc14rtm_update1_x64 (included in IA installation) has a check for the 64 bit OS but for some reason there were both included without a check on the OS.
Now surrounding those two scripts with an OS check it works.
Thank you for your help.
Best regards,
