OP OP R Ramsx131 Solid State Member Messages 20 May 20, 2009 #24 Yea actually on the OS I was looking through some things and I have seen people complaining about the 64-bit Vista so would 32-bit be better or would it be easier to go with XP 32,64-bit either one is fine, as long as everything runs smooth.

hikaricloud Golden Master Messages 6,220 Location USA May 20, 2009 #25 Vista 64 works fine. I'm running it, and plenty of people run it with no problems. Besides, you need a 64-bit OS with the amount of RAM you have. XP 64 is more of a hassle than it's worth, and besides, it's getting really old. Not to mention it's more expensive on newegg than Vista 64.
