you need to check all the hard ware and programs that you use to insure =
they have 64 bit updates for them.
you will most likely run into some snag or other.
even with 64 bit vista there are still programs that will not run and xp =
64 is a lot older and with less support. I waited 2 years for lexmark to =
provide printer drivers, they eventually changed story from later to =
NEVER.

Hi all
Just bought a new Dell Inspiron 530 which came with a 32 bit Vista
Basic. I want to remove this and clean install Win XP 64 as my main
home desktop. Due to fact I work from home, it is imperative that Win
XP 64 works like a production system.
So far, I have read negative reviews about XP 64 bit. Mostly people
mention driver issues. I just wanted to know if that is still the
case. Is there anyone out there who has a similar system and has been
using XP 64 bit? If so please reply to this post and let me know how
you got on.
Thanks
Yousaf
