Do any of you guys/gals run this operating system? Better yet, can you run MCM2 on it?

-Thanks,
Chris

I dont really see the need for it, i mean, what programs would you use that use the extra 32bit?

I answered your first question, rendering the 2nd question un-answerable.
I only answered because no one else has answered. fool.

tobz18, here is an answer to your question.

Why you would use it is irrelevant to Moto's question. He wants to know if you were using it would MCM 2 work with it.

I do not have any personal experience with it, but since it needs the WOW64 to run it I would think that it would work but be slower than a 32 bit version of windows running on the same machine.

Thanks Bruce,

I was reading the Hard Copy site where they did an 8 game test running x64, to find that the only game compatiable with x64, Chronicles of Riddick, actually ran slower in x64 bit.

Go figure, huh?
