I have Vista 64 and apart from what comes with the OS, I have no 64bit software, except for drivers.

All the 32bit stuff works fine.

avast is 64bit, 7-zip is 64bit.

So it seems native 64 bit software has yet to really make an appearence.

Lots of software is available in both 32-bit and 64-bit versions.

I suggest you rephrase the question or this thread will just get locked.

*looks at Mr Paul with one eye squinted.*

I'm very much confused here, your lack of punctuation throws this question to the dingos and then leaves the remains for the dung beetles to form into a ball and roll back to the colony.

Are you asking "what is 64bit?" or "which software runs natively in 64bit?".

It's what happens when you rip a piece of paper six times (with it folded and all, you know what I mean).

Fanatic · 17 May 2008 at 11:56

He clearly meant where is the 64bit software and what there is available.

crazyDAJT · 17 May 2008 at 12:02

solidworks 2008 64 bit

might be a bit pricey just for the sake of having some 64bit Software

Apart from drivers the only other thing I have installed is 7Zip.

Indeed, but some people have their heads in the clouds shall we say

i didn't realise until just now that paint.net is 64bit.

Been using 64 bit windows for a single day and pretty much nothing other than drivers.

But this is https://secure.logmein.com/home.asp?lang=en. Crysis is as well.
