XP 64 vs Vista 64mBit
OK, I have a nice Precision 2400 with Vista Business 64 mBit but already had some problems with Vista.
I have to confess, that I am not a fan & supporter of Vista :robotmad: at all. To have an "emergency sollution" in the back I bought a XP professional 64 version.
Questions:
Can anyone tell about experience with XP 64?
Did anyone installed XP 64 on a notebook Vista 64 was installed before?
Is there any problems with the necessary drives XP64 requests (according the hardware)?
Is there any trap I have to look for by installing XP?
Thank you! :smileywink:
Yes, I was told this by one person, so far, but that statement wasn't enough. The admin of the company I work for had a look at my Vista, it took him ~1 hour to fix ist, but without this support....
Anyway I keep XP 64 close, who knows what other evel things Vista will do.
Thanks for the answer, I will keep it in mind.

If you don't like Vista x64, your not going to like XP x64 at all. XP x64 is not compatible with a lot of the programs and hardware that Vista x64 is.
I have Vista x64 and have to say it's been compatible with everything I use.
