Ive had my AMD 64 3400+ for a month or so now. I would like to try a few live version so 64-bit OS's before actually partitioning my HDD and loading one.

What options do I have as far as live 64-bit OS's?

Not sure for "live cd" stuff. Probably Gentoo is your best bet. Those things are designed to work on as much hardware as possible and since x86-64 will run 32bit programs most people just release 32bit stuff.

For the actual Distro you have more choices when it comes time to install on your harddrive.

Ubuntu is the one I want to unstall. Or debian. Let me know if you have any more luck than I did (none).

I dont really want to install anythng (other than win64) until things get a little more stable. Which is why I am wanting a live version to play around with in the meantime.
