Guest Halvis Posted June 24, 2005 Posted June 24, 2005 Xp Pro, Xp 64 Pro, 2000 Pro? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
red930 Posted June 24, 2005 Posted June 24, 2005 That's a bit of a personal choice issue. For the greatest compatibility you have to go with XP Pro unless you have a specific application that requires something else. Xp Pro, Xp 64 Pro, 2000 Pro?

Protagonist. Posted June 24, 2005 Posted June 24, 2005 XP pro 32 bit works great for me but x64 bit xp professional works great also and is my personal favorite. I know there isn't much that' on 64 bit yet but it seems to run 32 bit stuff fine and I very much enjoy the 64 bit things like Java, .NET, Internet Explorer, Far Cry, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldGuy Posted June 24, 2005 Posted June 24, 2005 I use Win2k Pro cuz is it's what I've got and what I paid for...I've installed and played with XP pro a few times but haven't spent enough time with it to tell ya anymore than it "looks pretty".......up until I totally change it around to look like what I'm most comfortable with using, Win2k Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNs Posted June 24, 2005 Posted June 24, 2005 XP Pro and XP x64 work for me best - dual booting most of the time, but I use x64 less as driver support is still lacking for some of my hardware *looks @ Matrix Orbital* Â ---dens Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

red930 Posted June 24, 2005 Posted June 24, 2005 I haven't loaded Win2K3 Server on an nF3 or nF4 board yet. I leave the server stuff to server boards for the most part. I might do it just for the exercise though. You never know what will pop up when you try something. Â I did try to install Win98 on Erzebet but that was a bust. The OS never loaded after the installation. not on poll. win2k3. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
unreal Posted June 24, 2005 Posted June 24, 2005 I am trying to use x64, except it uses more memory but runs 64bit progs faster - compromise there... Â So I will probably end up back on 32bit pro... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Halvis Posted June 25, 2005 Posted June 25, 2005 OK, I was just curious. I have 2000 pro, and XP pro and they both seem to be pretty stable and crash free. Other than faster start up and a wee bit more user friendly, I cant tell much difference between them. Since this will be my first 64 bit build, I was just wondering if there were any noticable benefits to XP 64. I suppose that there will be, when more apps & drivers show up.
