Quick help PLZ-If I had to switch back to win7 32-bit...

[TedShackley]

^^ for work related reasons, would that affect my games like BF3, BC2, skyrim, F12011, deus ex HR, metro2033, AvP

I'm using win7 64-bit with 2x2GB DDR3 1600, would win7 32-bit mean I would only be able to use 3GB ??????

And I'm using a M4 128GB sata3 SSD and a 640GB sata3 HDD for storage, I'm also considering a dual OS installation, leaving win7 64-bit, and also installing win XP 32-bit for work related program/interface to run right.

I'm pretty sure that the 32-bit OS will be able to address 4GB of ram . If you already only use 4, then I don't think you will have issues.
how much RAM Win 7 32-bit can recognize? - Microsoft Answers

Just wondering but why not just use the XP mode in windows 7? Just a thought.

Download Windows XP Mode

xp mode is just a virtual machine so he might as well install vbox but depending on the requirements might be easier to setup a dual boot system witj an oldet drive.

thanks, nevermind though I as reading old info, doesn't matter 32bit or 64bit

but if I had too, as long as the games work fine it wouldn't matter much any

I was was about to ask why you would witch back to win7x32, because I don't remember having any problems running games or software that is windows based in windows7x64.
I know that when Windows XP was out that there where driver issues for Windows xp x 64 which sometimes could be fixed by using vista x64 drivers
