For Anti Virus and all the other gubbins, pretty much everything for Vista is x64 compatible. Especially now that Vista has been out for so long.
XP64 was a bit of a waste of time, but Vista x64 can cope with pretty much everything. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Winterlight Sent: 04 December 2008 19:24 To: hardware@hardwaregroup.com Subject: [H] Vista 64 issues and questions In the past I always have set up my drive C = Primary 2GB FAT32 Boot.. where I have the boot files and MBR then I have a logical drive with separate partitions that typically dual boot XP1 on D XP2 on C I tried this as a trial run on my new setup with C as boot drive, D as Vista 64 and E as a new install clean XPSP3. I installed XP first and then Vista 64. Vista boot loader sees XP but when it starts to load XP but then it just does a spontaneous reboot. Anybody know why? What are Vista 64 using for anti virus, anti malware, and firewall? Is Vista's firewall and Defender good enough to do the job here? What about anti virus? Brian, I began to have the shutdown issue right after I installed VMWare Workstation. m
