I want to run Vista 64
OK I have a machine sitting here presently running Vista Home Premium, It has a dual core Athlon 64 on an Asus M2N-SLI deluxe board with the most current bios
I just dropped 4 gigs of ram into this thing and was aware of the address limitations of a 32 bit os
Both xp pro and Vista HP 32 bit can only address 3.5 gigs of ram
This is why I want to run vista HP 64 bit, I can get it at a good price but I need to know this
I love Firefox and Thunder bird and I was wondering if they would run on this, I also need to run the Second Life viewer since I have an account with them
Can Vista 64 run 32 bit apps, I remember Win 9x would run 16 bit apps , is it done in the same way
Heres my specs
Asus M2N-SLI deluxe mobo
Amd Athlon 64x2 6000+
4 gigs Mushkin ram
Evga gforce 8800gts 640 meg only one card
XFI extreme music sound card
500 gig seagate sata 2 hd
Samsun dvdrw drive
Gosh and a floppy drive
I know there are 64 bit drivers for my components I am just concerned about my apps
Thanks in advance
Format c I'm givin er all she's got cap'in !!! )
