Minimum requirements for Desktop client on x64 Windows to connect to 2005 OLAP server

SUMMARY
This are the minimum requirements for NovaView Analytics client installed on x64 Windows to connect to 2005 OLAP server. 
CAUSE

NovaView Analytics is 32-bit application and it will run on 64-bit Windows XP/Server in 32-bit emulation mode. Above are  minimum requirements to connect to MS OLAP 2005 server. Same can be applied for 32-bit Windows choosing proper version X86 instead X64

This solution is not recommended for Panorama NovaView Server and we still suggest full OLAP client and management  tools to be installed on it. Please see Software Requirement for Panorama NovaView Server
