Halo people. I am wondering: Would changing to AMD 64 FX-1 work on Windows XP the 32 bit? I know there is Windows XP 62 it edition coming out but would it work on Windows XP?

the only thing that is bad about the window xp 32-bit is that it will not max out your cpu, the intel 64bit is coming out as soon as the window 64bit comes out so best to wait and see whats happens.

I just bought an AMD64 and I am trying to install WinXP 32-bit and so far it has been impossible.
Installation will get frozen somewhere near the end?
Any idea on what it might be happening?

Hi, i'm thinking of buying AMD 64 and I was wondering if Windows2000, XP and Linux would work on that machine?
And also I'm planning to install VMWare to simulate multiple OS, will I have a problem of installing VMWare on a AMD64? Thanks,
