    Vista SP1, 32/64 bit system.

    First - anyone got this loaded up? Comments?

    I read the release notes and didn't see a lot of gain for the average
    user (but what do i know :) ) except maybe the mention of the audio
    changes. No idea what the changes in audio are myself. Maybe someone
    could explain changes for audio....

    Second - There are several versions of SP2 (I've got home premium)
    but since i have a 32/64 bit system along with a "Program Files" folder and
    a "Program Files X86" folder. So does this mean I need to install both versions
    of SP2?

    thanks,
    savagcl

    Well, SP2 hasn't been fully released yet, so I'd wait a bit longer ;)

    You don't have a 32/64 system. It's either/or.

    Look in Control Panel\System and Security\System and check the line System type: It'll say if you have 32 or 64 bit OS.


    Then that's the only one you need.

    As for SP2, it hasn't been finalized yet, although it is close.

    I think I know what he means - A Vista 32 bit and a Vista 64 bit dual boot?

    OK, Thanks folks!

    Under "System" it says 64 bit.

    Guess I'll just keep watching for a release. Durn sure don't
    want a beta or RC1 either.

    thanks again,
