The only problem I had with x64bit is that my Logitech cordless camera and my Canon Fb630 scanner would not work. So I duel booted with 32bit and 64bit. Got new printer 4-in-1, solves the scanner problem. But logitech won't make the drivers for the camera. So, I jump down to 32bit once a week to run my Webroot Spysweeper. They said they are working on a beta 64bit program now.

Thanks for that advice, think I might go back to my original idea of dual booting as well, hey got plenty of hd space, thanks for the tip.....Which did u load first.

I had 32bit loaded first, then I bought the x64. I always partition drives for easier defragging. Got to have partitions. Can't put 2 os's on same drive.
