Hi there.
I'm on Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit for my everyday uses, but find older games (yea I like older games) like Dungeon Siege 1 to be laggy which is not because of a hardware weakness (i run BF3 pretty well)
So I though installing XP as a secondary OS might be a good try since most of these games have to be played in "XP compatibility mode" to run on my current windows 7 OS.
So let me know first if im correct or wrong with this. If positive, I'd like to know if I should install a 32 or 64bit version of XP considering that this OS will be used for the sole purpose of playing older games (2000-2005)
Laptop is a Toshiba Satellite A660-042 (i7 quad core , Geforce 350m, 8gb ram)
Compatibility and performance are priority here.
Thanks
