Follow that advice. 64bit is still in it's infancy for desktop
use. Only the LGA775 Celeron D and all current LGA775 P4's
support 64bit extensions for Intel CPUs. Again, half your
software and even some of your hardware may not work. In the
Windows world it's easier to make stuff work on Vista than it is
on x64 Windows.
