I am planning on doing a dual boot soon. One Raptor 150GB for XP 32bit and stuck with 2.93GB reconize on XP 32bit since i have 4GB of RAM and the other Raptor 150GB for Vista X64.

Yah this is WRONG.

I' currently on Vista 64, but I ran XP 64, for two years prior. The only issue I ever encountered was being unable to patch MSN (since been fixed). Seriously not a big deal lol.

If you have 4Gb of RAM, and aren't using ancient hardware, there is no reason not to be using 64 bit. Just check for drivers before hand, and if they are all available, switch.
