Hello,

You can use SYSPROCESSORINFO structure to retrieve this information. The setup populates this structure during the initialization stage. The memeber which will be of your interest is SYSPROCESSORINFO.nProcessorArchitecture. The possible values are

PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE_INTEL
PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE_IA64
PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE_AMD64
PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE_UNKNOWN
