Nope I have 2gb on my windows 7 box, and it runs faster than XP. Don't know why or what MS did, but it is faster and more stable than Vista too.
Now back to the original topic, Vista 64 Ultimate. I have been reading on several different forums, and the consensus is, if you got a chip that can run it, and want to upgrade your ram, there is nothing really wrong with 64bit. Just a bit more work to get all the correct drivers. I run hard wired gig Ethernet and 10/100 Ethernet so I don't need wireless drivers on my local machines. All of my wireless machines are still running XP Pro. Looks like I will start backing everything up tonight and tomorrow and format the rig over the next couple days. This is going to get interesting.
Thanks again for all the info guys. You Rock.
