LOL! Has anyone noticed any difference in speed between 32 and 64? If so, which one was favored? I'm just talking general stuff like how quick programs open and their responsiveness. Thanks.

I just went from Ultimate 64bit to Ultimate 32bit and I havent really noticed a difference. Its possible that 32bit SEEMS a tiny bit faster but if that doesnt sound logical its probably just me lol hard to say...

Materials
  • nLite(free)
  • Vista installation cd
  • ALL!!! the vista drivers and hotfixs for your model
Method
  1. Install then run nLite
  2. When you get to this screen insert your vista disc and browse to it
  3. Then select the option you want and keep going and follow the prompt
If read the article below
http://www.nliteos.com/guides.html
post if there are problems
My jaw dropped all the way down to the ground. I'm speechless. Sir, are you aware that this is... a little wrong? So what if XP and Vista have different drivers? If you install CP and Vista on different HDs/partitions, they don't interfere with each other in any way. Wheeze...
