Carefully install 64-bit Windows Vista

Although Microsoft provides 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows Vista Beta 2 for users to choose from, but after many computer installation tests, we do not recommend ordinary users to install 64 Windows Vista Beta 2 system - even if you have a 64-bit "heart".

first clear: only 64-bit processor systems will it be possible to install, run Windows Vista Beta 2 x64.

However, before you install Windows Vista Beta 2 x64, you need to consider 5:00

1. The vast majority of hardware is no 64-bit drivers: Under Windows Vista 64-bit systems, DVD recorders and audio driver has not yet launched the development of the vast majority of the card there is no corresponding driver support

2.Vista x64, any no explicit authorization of the drive can not enter the system kernel - simply can not be loaded. This is a unique aspect of the x64 version of Vista, perhaps to maintain stability, you can't ignore "no authentication driver" under 64-bit Vista.

3.Vista x64 system is currently not backward compatible with most x86 (32-bit) drivers: although many 32-bit programs can run smoothly, x86 drivers are rejected.

4.Vista x64 does not support 16-bit software

5.64-bit programs are sparse: There are currently not many x64 programs released, so you will not get the "should" performance improvement from 64-bit systems

Unless you are a 64-bit paranoid or tester, there is absolutely no need to choose 64-bit Vista - at least 32-bit Vista is now more suitable for your needs.
