Vista32 to 64 Sony Vaio help
"Wonderman" wrote in message ... Thanks. It seems the processor and chipset will run 64 bit. I have ot wonder about the logic of ASUS making a board with CPU and Chipset 64 bit capable and limiting the memory max to 2 meg. It maybe the manufacturer is trying to get around the problem of explaining to the average consumer why they bought 4GB and can only use about 3GB using the more common Windows 32-bit operating system. It's more than likely you can install 4GB without a problem in most of these laptops.

Vista32 to 64 Sony Vaio help
Well Success ! Installed 4 x 1MEG sticks and its running fine. Guess it
pays to not pay too much attentionto what an OEM prints. its likely that SONY just wasnt going to support this machine for x 64. Starting new post slower win performance number on the memory though.
