  1. When did support for Windows XP x64 Edition end?


    I know that support for Windows XP ended on 8 April, 2014, but since x64 edition is sp2 only, I thought the end date would be 2010, but then I thought it could be extended.

    if you wont go vista go xp x64 edition
    no point of 32-bit when you can get the 64-bit aka more than 3.25GB memory support, and faster perf

    XP 64-bit (x64) is based on Windows Server 2003
    XP 32-bit is based on Windows 2000

    i have used both 64-bit xp and vista and i find vista to be more stable and have alot more drivers
    heck windows update just installs the driver for you in vista *Wink When did support for Windows XP x64 Edition end? ;)

    vista also allows for update of drivers without reboot
    like ati catalyst drivers can be updated with zero reboot ;P

    How bad is XP x64?

    There are only three main issues with XP x64:
    1) Driver Support - A lot of lowly manufacturers do not have XP x64 drivers. Just make sure to download drivers for all your devices prior to purchasing XP x64. If you can't find a driver for something, know that it is very unlikely for that device to function in XP x64.

    2) Application Support - XP x64, like Vista x64, has zero support for 16-bit applications. If you have any old 16-bit games or programs, they will no longer function.

    3) Installer Blacklisting - Some idiot installation developers have added operating system checks to the installers which blacklist any operating system not explicitly defined in the installer. Basically, that means the installer will refuse to install the software on XP x64 even though it works fine on XP x64. I know this is true for Beyond Good & Evil and XIII--the list is rather lengthy. You can work around this one by installing the application on a operating system that isn't black listed and then copy the files over to your XP x64 computer.


    I have been using XP x64 since June 2005. Those are the only issues I have ever encountered. Other than that, it is practically the same as XP Pro.


    Edit: GTA4 and Saints Row 2 run fine.

    Server 2003/XP Professional x64 Edition service pack 2 is basically the same as service pack 3 on XP Home/XP Pro
