#1, were you running another Windows OS on the machine that now has XP Pro x64? If so, which OS and how does x64 compare in performance? How's driver availability and stability?

#2 By 13030 (198.22.121.120) at Thursday, March 31, 2005 11:37:37 AM
#4, how about performance compared to XP? Does it seem faster, more snappy?

runs great on two test systems - one a DC running ISA 2004, WINS, ADDNS, Panda Admin Secure 3.05 [test upgrade system].

Also runs great on a test system as a clean install - also a DC.

First system was used to see how the new security - especially WF does or does not impact systems running ISA. Second system is designed to test how new security features impact ICS and then RRAS.

So far, each has run extremely well - though the tests have been very short. The first system was updated via the full NW install package. Second was slipped prior to build.

Mix of hardware includes various RAID and other I/O controllers and third party SW packages - Panda, ArcServe BS r11.1.

Applications tests with proprietary medical billing and practice SW will be added opposite various database types - commercial and otherwise.
