View Full Version : Just curious: XP 64-bit? Brian Boyko January 9th, 2009, 11:07 AM I'm just a little curious about this: Is anyone using 64-bit Windows XP as their PC workstation OS? I'm wondering about program compatibility, as I would imagine that the applications developed for 64-bit are likely only developed for the Vista kernel... Just curious, I'm not in any mood to reformat just yet. Mike McCarthy January 9th, 2009, 11:37 AM XP 64 is my OS of choice. Current limitations that I have found are no support for certain key Matrox codecs that I need, and all Photoshop OpenGL features are disabled.

Brian Boyko January 9th, 2009, 02:48 PM Hmm... I wonder if I should look into downgrading. Only reason I'm using Vista is for the 64 bit support... Mike McCarthy January 9th, 2009, 02:54 PM The question is, are you having issues with Vista 64? If not, I reccommend you stick with it, since it is going to have more support moving forward. If you are having issues, it may be worth it to experiment with XP64. Brian Boyko January 9th, 2009, 03:03 PM The question is, are you having issues with Vista 64?

Well, no, I'm not having issues with anything workflow related... ...I'm... having issues with playing Team Fortress 2... |
