PLEASE NOTE:  I have not been able to find any specific place where DoD civilians or Army Retirees can download ActivClient.  If you are a Civilian for a particular branch of the Military, visit the branch specific pages listed here.  Retirees would not have a CAC unless they are a DoD civilian, DA civilian or contractor.

 

However,

 

WINDOWS 7 USERS: 

Is your CAC a "Gemalto TOP DL GX4 144" or "Oberthur ID One 128 v5.5 Dual", you "may" be able to use your CAC without needing to install ActivClient.

Here are more options for you (if the above doesn't work)

 

If you are unsure whether you have a 32 or 64 bit version of Windows, here is how to find out:

 

Windows 7 & Vista, Right click Computer, select Properties.  Under System, System type you will see 32 or 64-bit. 
XP, Right click My Computer, select Properties.  If it doesn't say 64 bit, you have a 32 bit Operating System.
