Vista 64 Question
I'm considering getting a new HDD with 32MB cache and installing Vista 64.
The machine is a Pentium D running 2GB Memory with an Intel 945G chipset. I also use ReadyBoost quite successfully. I'll be installing some 32bit software afterwards. Appreciate all help and thoughts and cautions ? |

If 64bit drivers are not available, the peripheral devices will not work and will have to be replaced with devices which have 64bit support. Also consider any devices which you may purchase in the near future. -- Mike Hall - MVP How to construct a good post.. http://dts-l.com/goodpost.htm How to use the Microsoft Product Support Newsgroups.. http://support.microsoft.com/default...help&style=toc Mike's Window - My Blog.. http://msmvps.com/blogs/mikehall/default.aspx |

Vista 64 Question
The only other peripheral I use really is a Sony Gigapocket recorder with
Media Center - and that is sort of grandfathered in with an XP driver with no hope of a Vista 32 driver let alone 64. Thank you for the advice.! "Mike Hall - MVP" wrote in message ...
