So I'm currently using win xp pro 32 bit edition, but I'm thinking about switching over to the 64 bit edition, mainly because I want to upgrade to 4GB of ram, and finally take advantage of my 64 bit processor.
What can I expect? Will it be generally painless? Smooth? Here are some topics:
*Drivers(I'm actually not too concerned, I searched online for drivers for all my peripherials, so far they at least exist, printer, mouse, optical drive, etc.)
*Software: Will all my 32bit xp software work fine on it?(in general) Or do I have to
purchase 64bit versions of it?
*Games(trivial topic since it is software), again same question, will it run just as it
does on the 32bit edition?
