Part I: 64-bit vs. 32-bit Windows | |
|
||
| Time: 11:58 EST/16:58 GMT | News Source: ExtremeTech | Posted By: John Quigley | ||

Windows XP Professional x64 edition is clearly not a mainstream product. For example, though you can order Dell Dimension XPS models with XP X64 installed, Dell gives you this rather dire warning when you try to buy a system with the OS installed: "Peripherals you currently own or plan to purchase in the near future (cameras, printers, MP3 players, handheld devices) will most likely NOT work on a system purchased with Windows XP Professional x64, and some software applications may not work on the x64 operating system." Even given this bleak message, we're still interested in 64-bit Windows XP, particularly for content creation applications and gaming. But we're also interested in the impact of running 32-bit applications on Windows XP Pro x64. | ||
