I just upgraded to a newer machine and would like to import all my existing
solutions to the new box. How does one copy entire solutions for Windows and
Web Applications?
Also, will VS run on XP 64bit?
Thanks
Harry
 
Harry,

I do not think there is a compiled version of VS.NET for 64 bit systems
yet (I could be mistaken). However, if there was, the solutions and
projects should transfer over seamlessly, as well as any compiled .NET
assemblies. You should be able to copy over the files directly with no
adverse effects.

Hope this helps.
 
I have ran my aseemblies on opterons almost everyday for a few months now
and never had a problem, however you cant compile them to take advantage of
the 64 bits yet, I guess the higher memory addressing is the only advantage
for now.
As for moving your code, it should all work fine, I dont see why it wouldnt,
assuming your 64 bit machine is AMD, if you are going with a crappy itanium
then I dont know.

As it is with the AMD's, the executables will likely only operate in 32 bit
mode(using emulation software or hardware). There is no full framework for
any 64 bit system released yet, to my knowledge.

Also, you will not have to recompile them, they should just move to 64 bits
when you run them under the 64 bit framework, you probably aren't even
getting extended memory usage unless you are running a 64 bit beta.
 
Many thanks
