Conditional Formatting Issue from Column 'AA'

Hi I'm using the following formula...

=2=COUNTBLANK(INDIRECT(CHAR(COLUMN()+62)&ROW()&":"&CHAR(COLUMN()+64)&ROW()))

To check 2 cells to the left of any given cell and if they appear empty change the colour of the cell. It's been working perfectly, however I've now reached column 'AA' and upwards on my spreadsheet and the formula has stopped working. Any ideas would be massively helpful.

I've tried adding an A in (bold, red) but that didn't work either.

=2=COUNTBLANK(INDIRECT(CHAR(COLUMN()+62)&ROW()&"A:"&CHAR(COLUMN()+64)&ROW()))

Thanks in advance
