I wonder if anyone has any comments of running ANY games under Windows Vista (NO BETAs PLS).
Please state what version you have ie BASIC | HOME | BUSINESS | ULTIMATE and what game you played.

Running Vista Ultimate with 3GB RAM. Only had 1 issue... and it was ALLEG and Symantec Antivirus 10.2.... they don't like each other... so i took off Symantec.
All other games run great and backwards compatibility to Windows XP games.

lmao, MW I will leave you alone about this but...
Can you PLEAZE re-nig on the the 'genius' crap? It would make it so much easier for me to give you a fair shot... otherwise the pot-shots just become too easy.
As I see it you've prolly gone to other online games and gotten good or semi-good and been able to pull the 'Genius Tactic' over on a bunch of highschool sex-starved nerds by looking up debate tactics and argumentative logic on Wiki. Then you came here, thought to pull the same stunt and discovered that Allegiance has one of the smartest fan bases on the internet (IMHO- in my humble opinion). Congratulations the charade is over and not knowing 64 bit and 32 bit on comps.... well...
* just because I am not entirely heartless, I could say "Look it up," I will explain to you that 64 bit and 32 bit are two different versions of the same program. One works on a cpu that is 64 bits (it communicates faster than the 32 bit computer) the other on a 32 bit cpu. *A+ certified before the 64 bit machines hit the shelves so my knowledge on the subject is not deep* Think Nintendo= 8 bit, Sega Genesis= 16 bit, Nintendo 64= 64 bit...

Wrong thread to bring that up, Jorm.
64 bit is basically the processor being able to handle data in bigger chunks. It also removes the 4GB memory cap that 32 bit operating systems have (it increases it to a really fracking huge number). Intel and AMD have also taken the opportunity to increase the number of registers the processor can use while everything else is getting changed.
A 32-bit OS will run on a 64 bit chip, but not the other way around (and it won't see most of the benefits). In addition, a 64 bit program will only run on a 64 bit OS. Oh yeah, all the hardware drivers need to be 64 bit, so it'll suck for a while until manufacturers finish making them (and don't hold your breath for support of older hardware).
Windows XP has a 64 bit version available, and I believe that Vista has both versions on the same disk, but I could be wrong about that.
I'm not familiar with AMD's line, but all of Intel's Core 2 processors are 64 bit, IIRC.
