[QUOTE="General_X"]I don't know, I've heard bad things about the 64-bit version of XP. If you do get a 64-bit OS I recommend Vista, but if you get a 32-bit version (which only supports 3.2GB of RAM) then get XP Professional.General_X
What do you mean you heard bad things about it?
Compatibility problems mostly, I've heard that not many programs have been written for the 64-bit version of XP, and that drivers are hard to come by. Don't take my word for it though because I don't have any first hand knowledge of these problems.
I agree with everything General says. I have used XP 64, and really hated the experience. Drivers sucked, applications didn't perform well, gaming was bad. I have Vista 64, and love it.
