XP Pro x64 - Have you tried it?
 

Hi, just downloaded and installed the MS 64 bit trial O/S, wondered if anybody with a 64 bit processor has given it a go yet?

I'm not far off doing this myself - about 2 or 3 weeks I think.

i've downloaded the iso but haven't installed yet, may have a go on the long weekend (woo hoo easter bank holidays)

remember all your current drivers won't work, you'll have to use windows built in drivers or search for updated drivers.

Yep, tried a couple of builds. Thought it was good overall. Haven't been bothered to install RC2 though, cuz I'm running a customised version of XP Pro, stripped almost 200MB of crap out using nLite.

Going to give it a shot when i get my 64bit processor. I do hear that you can have problems with drivers, or lack of them for the x64 platform?

Yes..main one is my wireless network card, linksys, not supported yet :(

I use it and the only drivers I haven't been able to find are for my Epson R300 printer (I expect I can use a different Epson driver for basic printing functions but haven't tried yet) and my DEC2000 TV decoder - fat chance of any drivers for that.
