So if your running the normal XP your computer is emulating nothing. As far as XP is concerned you have a 32bit cpu. When they were designing this CPU they made it so it would run fine as a 32bit cpu for this reason. |
Cheers for the link.
That's why I think the AMD has the advantage over Intel's offering, by extending a 32bit to 64 you get the best of both worlds.
So when I get hold of a finished copy of XP64 any future 64bit applications will run luverly, as will any 32bit applications as the CPU can handle both zonkingly well
Update: tracked down a copy of srv03sp1_usa_1069_amd64fre_pro.iso which should be active for 360 days so I can play with it now
