Hmm.. Let's see..
You are trying to install a 64bit Operating System on a 32bit hardware
system.
Guess that settles that one. =)
(Having a dual 32bit based system does not make it a 64bit system, heh.)
USNBrendon said:Shenan...You're an MS-MVP...??? What exactly are the criteria for
such a title? Certainly being polite, helpful and knowledgeable were
NOT among the prerequisites! Your post was rude and incredibly
disingenuous, and only added to the confusion about x64 technology.
The nature of your comments are rather contrary to the "MVP" status
you hold, as well as the very purpose of the newsgroup in general.
Thanks for making certain the you are/were informed before opening
your big mouth.

Shenan Stanley (MS-MVP) responds to the users request for help with:
"Hmm.. Let's see.." (Sorry Shenan, but starting out this way IS
rude...if for no other reason than it comes across as totally
condescending. It seems highly improper to address an "OP" this way,
particularly when all that was requested was HELP!)
"You are trying to install a 64bit Operating System on a 32bit
hardware system." (Again, I don't see the helpful attitude in such a
statement...particularly when the statement is inaccurate.)
"Guess that settles that one. =)" (This statement was like shoving
your middle finger in the "OP's" face! It is crass and uncool.)
"(Having a dual 32bit based system does not make it a 64bit system,
heh.)" (Lastly Shenan, please don't backpedal...just admit you
intended your remarks precisely the way they came across! If you are
going to take cheap shots by imferring that the OP is ignorant enough
to believe that a dual 32bit system=a 64-bit system, then be big
enough to admit that ending it with "HEH" was just your way of adding
insult to injury! Perhaps you were in a mood...tired of dealing with
stupid questions. This OP asked no stupid question...instead
requested help and expertise. Instead you heaped on a whopping dose
of sarcasm and pointless jeering. Did it make you feel good?
