    XP (x64) -vs- Vista (x64) Actual Benchmarks

    When I do tests, I simply do them for my own use, for my own pleasure, to get my software preferences to work best and the most productive for me. I got Vista x64 for my hardware when I bought it, but I still see no reason to move away from XP x64 Edition. On MY hardware (including a Lenovo...

    XP (x64) -vs- Vista (x64) Actual Benchmarks

    In case you don't know; Microsoft doesn't particularly like the fact that so many are still happily using XP x64. Just like with their virus-hunting these days, they actually PAY people to help them with their 'issues'. And believe me, they pay well enough to make users untrustworthy when they...

    XP (x64) -vs- Vista (x64) Actual Benchmarks

    Why did this thread get closed down: http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1299869&page=16 ? It's highly relevant still. I've been succesfully using DirectX 10 on XP64 for months now, the switcher (to switch between 9 and 10) works perfectly fine too. XP x64 is not going away anytime...

    XP (x64) -vs- Vista (x64) Actual Benchmarks

    Except when it is true. Which it clearly is. You just can't handle the fact that you were wrong and I was right. Blah blah blah. Have anything useful to add? Like for example THE REASON this thread was revived, which is to answer to your silly claims about XP x64 versus Vista x64. I still get...

    XP (x64) -vs- Vista (x64) Actual Benchmarks

    Are you sure you want to make that claim? Harddisks deteriorate by the minute, mind you. Have you ever heard of a tool called MHDD? I guess not. It will show you how FAST your mechanical HD breaks down as you use it; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZLLeMP6uII&fmt=18 Trust me, I know what I'm...

    64-Bit XP vs 64-Bit Vista

    Tests conducted by InfoWorld show that Windows XP is still the overall performance king even in today’s quad core PCs. Not only does Windows XP outpace Windows Vista, it also does better than the current Windows 7 beta. From last week, in...

    XP (x64) -vs- Vista (x64) Actual Benchmarks

    No, it clearly is not. In case you didn't know, the average HDD deteriorates quite a bit. So if you "wipe your disk clean" for every test, the last one will actually suffer more from that than the first install. Also, it isn't as efficient as installing all your test systems on one drive and...

    XP (x64) -vs- Vista (x64) Actual Benchmarks

    As I wrote: Then *at least* consider the option that others might not be as silly as to be using a different position on a HDD for testing different operating systems at the same time. How stupid do you think I am? What many of you fail to see here is that you will never reach trustworthy...

    XP (x64) -vs- Vista (x64) Actual Benchmarks

    Can you people even read? I was not the one who has done the tests which those graphs represented. Also; I don't feel the need to have to defend them, since they're not even favouring XP64 as much as I do myself from my own user-experiences at home. Stop behaving like you know everything...

    XP (x64) -vs- Vista (x64) Actual Benchmarks

    Ever heard of switching partitions around? In case you wondered; I co-developed Ranish partition manager. Switching partitions around on large drives is as easy as sh_t with open source tools like that. I've been using them for testing and multibooting partitions since 1993. I've co-written...

    XP (x64) -vs- Vista (x64) Actual Benchmarks

    Why aren't you capable of multi-booting between XP64 and Vista? I have both on my system, they don't influence each other one bit. Even better; I have a linux x64 next to them on the one drive. Ever hear of partitioning your boot-drive?

    64-Bit XP vs 64-Bit Vista

    Thanks for proving my point. You people wouldn't even believe it, even though it's the truth. There is simply no way you will accept defeat when it comes to the harsh reality. Fact remains that Vista is slower than XP64 on ANY hardware with most software the average user uses/needs, on most...
