Hi,
If you are running Vista 64 I guess you will know what I am on about here.
You know when you install a program and it asks for a location etc to save to, ie "Program Files" or "Program Files (x86)" does Vista 64 always default this to the latter folder, ie "Program Files (x86)"?
It seems to me that it always defaults there unless I specifically change the path myself.
Are my thoughts on this be correct?
Also, if I was to add a 32bit program to the 64bit "Program Files" folder and vice-versa does this have any effect on the performance at all?
Sorry if these are daft questions but I dont want to be installing stacks of programs and find they are going to the wrong folder.
THX
