Can someone post memory usage in 32-bit vista and those with 64-bit cpu

memory usage in 64-bit vista.I heard that 64bit OS eats 70% more memory

than 32-bit,is it true?

Yes! Especialy noticeable in IE scrolling, window moving (the glass doesnt feel "heavy" anymore), and my games run better than XP!!

[freak_power]

Because if there was no one to beta test it, it would never get out of beta 1

From what i've seen it would be easier for Microsoft to make Windows XP Second Edition....no kidding....

I won't pass any final judgement on this release, not till beta 2.

Time for Nvidia to get their act together and release Vista compatible drivers for the 6xxx range :pinch:

[EGM92]

Just curious question to all the beta testers, did you install over your current OS? or did partition the HDD and install it there?

I think nvidia has done a stellar job with their drivers up until this point... I'm sure their Vista-compliant drivers will be out shortly, however... their track record for driver support has been uncanny imo

[SAMeAiM]

I had a partition i didnt really use... so i just installed onto that :)

[EGM92]

Is the beta stable enough to be used as a main OS?

[_I am Reptar]

How did yall install ATI drivers?

I cant get them to work.

Can someone Pm me please

[Ran Sagy]

I risk being repetative.. is there a list of compatible hardware official or unofficial somewhere ?

I'd like to test the beta, but this machine currently has only a gf2mx, which obviously, wont run aero\dwm.
