    1 out of 5 stars More flakes than a snow storm   September 5, 2008
     4 out of 4 found this review helpful

    Where to begin... basically don't. The only thing more flakey was the XP64 I bought a few weeks earlier. With only the OS loaded I got blue screens galore. Updates didn't and Windows live this that and the other fell over but then were impossible to remove. I expected it to be better than XP64 which was a nightmare but frankly the improvement was marginal. I am sure you get the picture by now. If you want a 64 bit OS then this is not it.

    I was very disappointed in the 64-bit version and I should have known that if THE major on-line only manufacturer of 64-Bit (Intel/AMD) PC's do not ship (as of Nov 2006) this OS with their 64-bit processors then there must be a reason.

    And there was. Make sure you have a 64-Bit version of your ethernet driver (if you are on broadband) or Modem (for dial-up) BEFORE you install this OS.

    Whist setting the machine up to work with standard software like MS Office and business printers was no problem, home-based hardware drivers are more difficult to come by.

    Whist the OS supports 32-Bit drivers, they do not work in many cases. This is why I feel most disappointed that MS did not get this one working correctly.

    I have since downgraded back to 32-Bit OS, losing 1GB of usable memory as well (3GB is the most 32-bit OS's can use).



    2 out of 5 stars Why did I buy it???   November 7, 2006

    I thought that this would go well with my new 4 machine network of AMD 64 machines. I do graphics, animations and astrodynamics so I need a lot of crunch. Drivers are nearly non-existant,the Office spelling checker won't work and neither does the networking, if you have a wireless connect to your modem. Networking works otherwise, sometimes, but you have to keep re-setting it up. All-in-all W2K is better, except that it is not 64bit. Can't win, NOT buying vista under any circumstances. Linux or something else first. I've had enough of being ripped!!!
