I downloaded it about three or four weeks ago and attempted to load it on a new laptop I just purchased and I just could not get it to finish loading. It would stop at several places and hang. Not at the same place every time. I dont believe they have enough kinks out of it yet.

doc,
If I recall correctly, wasn't your laptop equipped stock with 32bit hardware?. It is pointless installing the OS without compatible hardware.
B4 you criticize a bigger man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, you're a mile away, and you have his shoes.

Something must not be right doc.
Without drivers or applications, what is there to check out with the 64 bit OS?

I dont know, This I know, after several installation trys and it hanging every time I just quit trying. And I know how to install a operating system. Unless there is some piece of hardware causing the trouble I dont have a clue.

doc, maybe a crucial 64 bit driver for your laptop's hardware does not exist yet.

doc,
Ooops! someone had an issue installing the 64bit XP version very recently and I must have thought it was you, my bad.
A lot of people had install issues as well, some were resolved by ordering the install on CD, others were fixed by BIOS update and a few gave up on the whole thing. I hope you won't succumb to the 64bit defeat.
Keep us posted.
