The Enterprise version of WIndows 2003 (.NET) is 64bit, well theres a 64bit version of it. Ive tried the beta 32bit standard .net server, its a nice OS but for benching on amd whcih is what im using 2k is still better

If you run an Athlon 64 in Windows XP Home/Professional, does it run in 32BIT mode?

I thought they said it wouldn't come out until Q4 2004 or early 2005. That is what I read in some computer magazine.

You're mistaken, I think...
That dates are for the launch of the completely new windows 'Longhorn', win xp 64-bit should be here sooner...

[amd3001]

this spring.. that is unless it gets delayed..

The final longhorn code isn't expected till around 2005.

The last I heard the release was expect to be in Feb after Service pack 2 for XP is released. It's expected to be XP with a modified 2003 kernel.

Also, hello folks :D

Go here and get windows server 2003 for A64 for free. Just to bad there's no drivers out yet for the mobo or Ati cards.
