I downloaded Windows Vista 64bit English. Today I run Windows XP Home
Edition. I have quite new computer with AMD Turion 64 so hopefully i can run
64bit version. What bennefits do i get with 64bit comparing 32bit? Which one
shall i choose? can i run 32bits application on 64bit system?

But most of all, how do i start the setup? When i klick on Vista DVD setup
it wont run. I get SETUP.EXE IS NOT A WIN32-APPLICATION

HOW DO I CONTINUE? please help!
 
You are going to have to dual boot Vista x64 and XP Home Edition. Vista x64
must be installed on logical partition, and you have to start setup by
booting from the DVD or will get a Win32 invalid application error if you
try to launch it in XP Home.

Please check out Charlie Russel - Windows MVPs White paper - Is x64 right
for me?
