We have a few machines with 64 bit Windows 7 and all seems OK. Biggest advantage for us is that you can take advantage of more than 3.5 gigs of RAM.

Brondos Sent: Tuesday, October 05, 2010 7:31 AM To: Tech-Geeks Mailing List Subject: [tech-geeks] Before Taking the 64-bit OS Plunge I'm getting ready to do a clean install of Windows 7 64-bit OS on an updated computer that can handle it (but is running the 32-bit just fine). I want to do this because Adobe Premiere CS5 requires it. However, What kind of hardware am I going to have to give up if I'm not likely to find drivers? I have an HP Scanjet with ADF which I'm partial to . . . and an HP 650C DesignJet poster printer which I still want to use . . . Has anyone installed the 64-bit and lived to regret it?
