Back when Windows 95 was introduced, and there was a lot of 16-bit Windows 3.1 code. In order to allow the 16-bit to call 32-bit code (and vice-versa), Windows used a technique called "thunking". This was part fo a facility knowns as WOW (Windows on Windows). So the 32/64-bit issues will probably be dealt with the same way.
That's exactly how 32/64-bit will be dealt with in Win64. While there is a penalty from the thunking, it is extremely low, something like less than 1% in most situations. Still, my A64 3200+ flies with 32-bit XP, I can't wait to try the RTM of XP64 with some real driver support. As it stands now, I can't boot off RAID with RC1.

All the BSOD's that I have seen on XP in the last seven years were due to bad hardware. Bad memory, geriatric HDD.

Same.

I'll switch when intel releases their new 64 bit cores.
A lot of the higher end apps already are supporting the 64 bit arch. Just they are a real b*tch to find a place to get them.

I run xp-64 no issues at all with all my software. Biggest issue i have is the dep on the processor I forgot to turn it off for an app that i spent 2 weeks trying to patch.

For 32-bit apps, the OS uses the WoW64 compatibility mode which results in a (very?) small performance penalty.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12474759 Mon, 24 Jan 2005 15:43:57 EDT Re: Good; I'd like to try on my 64 bit Athlon laptop http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12474644 alien9999999 : Mandrake 64bit, and Gentoo 64bit run great on Athlon64 CPU, for over a year now...

AMD64 and EM64T (Intel's version of AMD64 extensions) both support 32-bit code natively. Also, Microsoft has developed the 64-bit version of Windows so it will also run 32-bit software (without emulation, to my understanding).

If you run a 32bit program in a 64bit environment, it is going to be crap because a 32bit environment has to be emulated. That whole WOW Windows on Windows thing. Emulators take up a lot of resources and are generally pretty slow...
