Well, I read up on this issue since I don't use OneNote or Outlook and find
myself in awe of MS's lack of support for one of their own key products.
Hope they actually fix it with the next update to OneNote.

Not sure why you believe this to be an x64 or Vista issue. Sounds like
an
Office issue.
I agree some individuals may have incompatibility issues. There are
simply
too many different standards out there. But, those same individuals
might
be
surprised to know the same issues occur with the x86 version at nearly
the
same frequency.
I simply stated I have had no compatibility issues even though I've
changed
hard drives, memory, CPU and installed various software items over the
last
year and one-half. This will not be the case for everyone. But, it is
not
the issue it used to be with XPx64.

I, and probably many others, would have to say Vista x64 has come a
long
way
on the compatibility issue. I have yet to run into a problem with x64
compatibility since Vista was released.

Hello
I hope you can help me with an issue :
My PC is Intel Core2 Quad CPU Q9450 2.66GHz windows Vista
Ultimate
32
bits 8,00GB ram. My brother wants my 2 2GB memory dim because he
says
32
bits systems don't recognize RAM over 4GB.
The system says 8GB, and the motherboard Asus
P5E CHIPSET X38 supports 8GB. Is he right and I have 4 more GB Ram
for
nothing, or is the ram ayhow helpfull and I showld keep it as it
is
?
Thankx
Maria Dulce
Unfortunately 4 gigs is the maximum that a 32-bit OS can use. In
fact,
because some of the address spaces are reserved for hardware (such
as
the
ram on the video card) the OS actually only has 3.X gigs available
to
it.
Try reducing the ram to four gigs and observe your PC's
performance -
you
should not see any difference. 64-bit OS's exist, but there are
still
compatibility issues. They are the future though, so you're brother
may
have to return the ram in a year or two g.
Try archiving mail from Outlook into OneNote..

Of course it is an x64 issue.. there is no driver for the function
available
for x64, but it works well enough in 32bit versions..
Hardware compatibility is being taken way more seriously than it was for
XP64, at least as far as what is in the case, but there are still issues
for
some peripheral devices, and software.
