| 528403 | 2007-02-26 21:32:00 | I'm planning to upgrade to Vista Home Premium, but I'm having trouble deciding if I should get the 64bit edition or the 32bit edition? System specs are: Athlon64 3000+ (1.8ghz) 1gig DDR400 RAM 80gig SATA HDD 120gig IDE HDD 256meg GeForce 6600 PCI-E Video Card Feedback on this choice would be appreciated. :) |

| 528404 | 2007-02-26 21:41:00 | Just as long as whatever devices u have, Vista 32 or 64 bit has drivers for it, either will be OK. | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 528405 | 2007-02-26 22:07:00 | TBH, neither, it's too early in the development cycle to adopt what is essentially unfinished software. If you're currently using Win2k or XP, they're the safer option at the mo and still good to go for a while yet. |

| 528406 | 2007-02-26 22:29:00 | Why are you wanting Vista? Its not an upgrade - new hardware is an upgrade. | pctek (84) | ||
| 528407 | 2007-02-26 23:24:00 | 64bit if you wish to use more than 3gb ram | SolMiester (139) | ||
| 528408 | 2007-02-26 23:27:00 | 64bit if you wish to use more than 3gb ram And if the mobo goes above 3-4 GB. |

It will not use unsigned drivers. See here (www.winsupersite.com). Mike. |

I'm planning to upgrade to Vista Home Premium If you're not gonna help him then why post? If he wants Vista he can get it. Why are you trying to turn everyone away from it? Seriously, it's really annoying now. As for the question, I think in the long run it's safer to go for the 64bit version. |
