Mainly business PC with very minor vid editing.

So, your time is up, what did you decide, and why?

yo4444 · Feb 23, 2007

Was going to go 64 bit because ofthis thread where some ppl say 64 is just fine, and the HP printer that will be unning has 64 bit vista drivers.. Any suggestions to confirm or to the contrary?

64 bit is fine if you can get drivers for everything you have hardware wise.

Absolute worst case, you can get a 32bit version sent later and use your 64bit key. You can swap between the two as much as you like. It'd be nice if someone can confirm downloading directly from MS works. You know, but the 64 bit and download the 32bit trial version and use your key. And vice versa...

Would be nice if they just let you use both...

The 32 bit/64 bit key use only works with retail IIRC, not OEM. So I went with 64, and we will hope it is just fine.

yeah as long as you an get drivers for everything in 64bit should be no problem
