Be careful what you install this on ... regular 32bit drivers will not install on this OS,

There are no AMD64 ATI drivers, so you will have to use the OS specific VGA.. some RAID controllers won't work.. and the VIA chipset drivers (if you are using the VIA sets) are beta..

Read the MS newsgroup with all the comments/issues and problems here

Useful place to unearth some 64specific drivers can be found here

Hope it just keeps a few from getting into a knot with it

pretty cool that they're giving you windows XP free for 360 days - plus you can just download it without paying a dime!

i'm downloading it, just in case i get a 64bit system one day
