Hurmoth Posted August 18, 2004 Share Posted August 18, 2004 Well, at least they are still working on this ... I was starting to think that they had completely given up on WinXP 64-bit :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLegendOfMart Posted August 18, 2004 Share Posted August 18, 2004 Its been out for a while, i registered for the download a few months ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurmoth Posted August 18, 2004 Share Posted August 18, 2004 Its been out for a while, i registered for the download a few months ago This is an updated Build ;) And no it won't work on any P4, as Intel does not have a 64-bit out yet ... at least not widely available!

j4ever Posted August 18, 2004 Author Share Posted August 18, 2004 Its been out for a while, i registered for the download a few months ago no it won't. P4 is 32bit and is thus outdated in the 64bit world. In order to use this, you need an AMD64 processor, or a new Intel Pentium 4F (which doesn't truely support 64bit, it justs supports large amounts of memory....its trash).

Raven Posted August 18, 2004 Share Posted August 18, 2004 I downloaded the preview but could not find drivers for my AMD 64 bit laptop. I contacted the companies involved and they were waiting for the 'official' release of XP 64 bit Edition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

todd Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 Still waiting for 64bit and PCI-Express to go mainstream (64-bit has a little bit already) before I do any upgrading hardware wise :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoNiCfReAk Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 Have they added UX themes to it yet or still Windows classic? Can I get some screens? Does it have Sp2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 well, the download link seems to be gone now so if anybody wants to post a link to a download ;)... I don't want the french version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martog Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 Have they added UX themes to it yet or still Windows classic? Can I get some screens? Does it have Sp2? It probably has themes, they are just disabled. And no, this will not include XP SP2 as it is NOT based from Windows XP. It is based off of the Server 2003 code and it currently based off of SP1 build 1218. When SP1 for Win2003 goes gold, so will XP 64bit for x86-64 and Win2003 64bit for x86-64 will go gold as well.

figgy Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 Does this make applications any faster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Hoffman Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 Actually, it seems to me that 32-Bit applications have gotten slightly slower. Also, what annoys me is that they made \Windows\System32 64-Bit, and alias \Windows\SysWOW64 to \Windows\System32 when a 32-Bit app is run. Seems to me like they should put the 64-Bit stuff in a \Windows\System64, and rename \Windows\SysWOW64 to \Windows\System32. This aliasing thing has so many drawbacks, that it's not even funny.
