Ive been using it a while now, ive encountered no problems what-so-ever. Its pretty much the same except a faster boot up. Not worth the bother unless its free and your gonna format anyway. Just make sure all the drivers are available before you do it | |

x64 is not a step between xp and vista, its a 64 bit version of xp. | |

Don't bother with XP x64 there are no where near enough drivers out for it yet. | |

Basically, you'll plug in your camera. It won't work properly. You plug in your printer, you have to bodge a driver for it. You plug in your phone, it won't work at all, you plug in your TV card, it wont work at all e.t.c... It's annoying because I bought a 64bit processor when I should have just bought a dual core. I thought there would be some drivers about now what with Vista coming in a 64 bit version, but I think the 32 bit version will be more popular as dual core processors seem to be more popular. | |

It's fast. But there are no drivers for it at all. I gave up on it because it simply didn't work :( | |
