64-bit apps

[imported_Johnny]

I just got a 64-bit version of Windows XP but haven't installed it yet. I know it's all backwards compatible but I'd like to try some 64-bit software. If anyone knows where I can get something, let me know! Tips & Tweaks are also appreciated.

If someone already posted this info somewhere, please forgive me for not searching for it. I'm at work and I want to get shite done before the long weekend!

Thanks all.

OK, so, I installed WinXP-64 and it works GREAT! However, none of my LAN adapters work (wireless(PCI/USB), wirefull(PCI), or onboard) I installed different drivers for all of them and nothing, zero, nada!!! I don't understand. This is only FYI, not a cry for help as I removed WinXP-64 and put Win-server-2K3 and optimized it for desktop usage... it like lightening now!

I wouldn't call it working great if you had no LAN support.

That probably qualifies as great for Windows :roll:
