is window xp profesional better on 32 bit or 64 bit .
i be trying xp and i have 2 install cd .
one 32 and one 64 so what do you thing
 
32 BIT is restricted to less than 4 GB of RAM, otherwise for most usage there are no differences.
32 uses less resources, or is claimed to, usual excuse for OEM choice.
If any programs are written for 64 bit only, they will not run on 32 bit, usually both versions are available.
 
thank you for a fast reply .
you see i have 3 computer brand new that i build .
all i like to is try xp for the fun of it .
it cant not be any worst then win8 .
right now i run 2 computer on vista hp on ssd drive plus on my 3 computer i run win 7 and vista on 2 drive .one is a raptor 10.000.250gb and a wd 7200 .500 gb all 64 bit .
 
Depending how new those new PC parts are, I would stick with XP 32bit. Easier to find drivers and whatnot (I think)

I know some parts never got XP drivers at all after Vista
 
al my computer are from 2 to 5 months old .
nothing old here .
i build them all my self .from the case up .
boot in 34 secs on 2 of them
 
Why on earth would you put a 12 year old operating system on brand new computers? :rolleyes:
 
I recommend avoiding xp 64-bit. The whole 64-bit thing happened somewhat late in xp's development cycle and is notoriously buggy with little support. If you have more than 4GB of memory get a newer MS OS or linux.
 
i dont need any new os i have them all .
well not window 8 .never i get win8 .
am 68 and for me it is a good pass time just to play around a bet .
now for the 64 bit i will not use it i will try the 32 bit and see .
you see i did buy the 2 of them from the deferent guy .
i should get them by this friday if am lucky .
one is from ca and i know that from ca it take at least 10 day to get here .
i know because i do all my shopping on the net i mean every thing .
all my computer parts i buy them from newegg.ca best place to shop .fast shipping and a lot of choice i mean a lot and good price

who said that you cant not format your drive if you dont like it .
there nothing there .
and a ssd drive dont cost that much [crusial m4 .128 gb] 99.00 plus shipping this is what i pay a month ago from the us .i live in ontario
 
you got this right men .
this is what i said at my age who care right .
at 68 you cant not just sit there doing nothing .you have to keep your brain working .this is what am doing .
really good pass time .
i do read a lot a good 6 hrs a day .
i google about 4 hrs a day .lol .then the rest is talking to my dog and look at some news .
me i dont have no school .grade 5 and for building computer it is a chalenge for me just to see if screwing up .
did not happen yet .
my first time on pc was in 2007 on a old ibm 300 gl . some like that .and gave to me by my grandson school .
to me it was just like gold
and it was xp running on 512 not even one gb .lol
 
one more thing .am 68 and i only type with one finger .lol .
i was a carpenter all my life well 30 years and cut my and fingers so many time that some of my fingers dont even bend any more .
ang both my legs are shot .to much climbing all day long .
a human legs are not made for climbing they are made to walk jesus .
monkey are born to climb not human.
so cant not do any more fishing or hunthing .no legs i trip all over the place .lol .
so all i have left is computer

i was being meanie but.. cool, good for you man, and i love dogs :D, as a suggestion, try those David Morrell books from the 70's to the 90's (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Morrell) if you didnt read them yet, they are best.

you really didnt like win 7? well its old but i guess you can still use XP, 7 would be better but use what you like man, 32bit XP is better.

oh, im 30 ;)

If you are going to use XP then go with the 32 bit version as it's much better supported than XP 64 bit. If you want a 64 bit OS then go Windows 7 x64.
 
thank you guy .i did not explain my self good about my reading .
what i mean reading .i read on the net not book .
i read a lot of reviews all about stuff that i like to buy ..
like my last mobo .it is the new fm2 they came out the fisrt week of oct .
anything i like to know i google for it then i will read a lot .
any thing i buy i read a lot of reviews .
you still young at 30 my god .
my dog is a sheltie .7 years old .tri-color .best friend you cant have .they love you for ever .even if they sick they still want to please you .
like xp 32 abd 64 .i say it about 50/50 of what peoples say .
the only thing it the driver for 64 .but they all say that 64 is faster then 32 .
but this is not a problem i did buy the 2 of them .
by the way i do have window 7. 64 bit it cost me 94.00 to my door last month .
i have the 2 cd .32 and 64 so i install the 64 .
the only thing i hate about 7 the taskbar if flat .it look like hell .
and i have to use paint to crop a dem picture .very complicated compare to vista

read this here .
[I have XP 64 w/AMD 64x2 at 2.8ghz. I have NEVER had a problem with games, except that they run better.
XP 64 is designed to automatically switch to 32 when necessary, it only runs at 64 when the software is designed to do so.

Most of the time there is no difference between the two, but when there is WOW.

heh, you like games too? cool! 32bit XP or 7 x64 are better but if XP x64 is working alright for you, use what you like, why not?

books are great man, a great way to spend some time alone, try this one from 1975: http://davidmorrell.net/books/testament/ you will thank me later ;) another good one is the "Sailing Alone Around the World" from Joshua Slocum http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joshua_Slocum

my dog is 13 years old and i love the thing, her mother was an american pit-bull and her father was a greyhound, shes a big dog, 45kg, and as you can guess, im all worried, she is my first dog and big dogs usually dont last more than 10 years... i really dont know how i will handle the situation or the effect that will have on me the day she is gone.. i dont think she will last more than a few months (if im lucky..) ;)
 
well i move to a place that they did not take so i had to send my dog to my daugther.
you one thing it harder on me then saperate with my wife .
for the fisrt 6 months men that ever suffer .
i cry for the first week .so after a couple year i deceide to move here were my daugther is and i took my dog back .
he is crazy about coming in the truck .why i dont know .
when i got it at about 5 weeks old i started to feed in house good .i cut really small .
you know even now at 7 i still have to cut every thing small yet or he will not eat .lol .no dog food here .he eat what i eat period .
he is crazy for pepperonie .cherry pie .i make all my pie .every thing .
i live in the bush 1/3 of my life and you have to leurn how to cook or you die if you dont .but some time he bark a lot .
sheltie are bad for that .
i did buy a female to get pup .the female got one pup but he is really big for a sheltie twice the size .why i dont know .
my dog is a tricolor and to get a trifactored i had to find a pure for sable female to get that color .
i studed sheltie for one year to find out wich female to buy .
i got my color ok but it way to big .so i gave the pup and my female to my daugther .
my daugther live on the first floor am on secound .now we cant not take the 3 dog out at the same time because my dog son want to fight is dad .lol
 
you cook for your dog? thats nice, mine prefer everything that i eat lol, i found her abandoned on a beach, she was about 40 days of age, i was living alone while doing college, was walking on the beach and saw that puppy and thought "why not?" brought it home, i didnt know how long it lives or what it eat.. i guess everything ended up well in the end, heh, i discovered who abandoned them (it had 5 puppies on the beach) later, thats why i know what kind of thing she is. and hell man, i didnt married and i dont have children, im too young! just the thought of it spooks me! so yeah, she is my daughter, my primitive savage furry daughter :D
 
i have 2 daugther .married for 26 years till she deceide just to leave for no reason at all .
i dont have any school she was doing all the banking .etc.etc .
as a carpenter i build my self 3 nice house well really for her and the kids .so one day she come home and said to me if you leave your name on the morgage the bank will not renew the it .
so me the dummy i said sure why not .
she had plan to screw me up .
and she did .
so after she left i stay in the house for about 11 years till she found that bozo and i guess what he talk her to sell the dem house .
guess what she did not gave me a dem cents .
but she did him buy a brand travel trailer 22.000.00 cash .
she got 185.000 for it and this was in a city up north .here in toronto you could a sold it well over 300.000 easy .
it was a 24 hundred square fts .
so if you look at it now i work all my life for nothing really .
ho well i still have my best freind anyway
ho i pay 500 hundred for my dog .
with paper and he as a chip in him .and also pay 500 for the female .
my every morning at 9.15 am he as is cheese not a big peice .
well i was telling you that i cut is food small .well a weiner i cut it in 30 small rondel .lol
you gave him a 1 inc long peice no way he eat it .lol
the cheese as to be slice in about 1/8 tick
the peice is only 1/2 wide .it so funny some time .
at 8.30 pm he as 3 waffle and again cut up in small peice .
then it the beauty parlor time .this is comb is hair .then he thing that he is so nice he walk and he look at him self.lol.
