Thread: Windows Xp 64-bit

    You'd probably want to wait to download the 64 bit XP OS for Windows. Without the drivers to be updated for the OS, you'd be better waiting for several months until the drivers have been updated.

    I have a hard drive in one of my systems that runs the 64 bit version of XP. I had no trouble finding drivers to get the thing up and running. Most of the apps I have tried to install have failed with the exception of a few.

    I was bummed because the two most important apps I wanted to use were security/anti-virus stuff. Well, I did find that the 8.0I enterprise version of MCAfee will work on the 64 bit platform. I have yet to find a firewall that will work.

    As far as games go I have been able to run HL2, Doom3, RTCW, and Unreal Tournament 2004 with little to no problem.
