Ever since cimmanifest.exe showed up on my computer it has been telling me that it is a 16 bit program and that I need to contact AMD to get a 64-bit version. I am not a gamer and frankly am not sure if I even need any of the AMD software that has been on my computer from the beginning. Ever since this file showed up I have been getting occasional black screens and the laptop seems slower. I would love to get rid of it, but I cannot even find it in my program files in order to remove it. This is very annoying for an old man who is not expert in such matters.
