Hy All!
I have a Acer 5210 Notebook........wanna know if I could install the Win Vista 64-Bit version on this notebook or not? cuz wen I wiki it over the net (i mean the processor),the wiki tell me that my processor is based on the IA-64 Architecture.........doesnt that also mean that ur not making good use of a 64-bit processor by installing a 32-bit OS over it (I currently have XP, and I also no one can also go for the Media Centre)...........but I wanna try Vista Sp1......I have 2GB of RAM.....Being a software engineer I know the architecture of Computers..........
A 64-bit processor can do some operations in a single go (single instruction) where as a 32-bit would take more than two-three instructions two achieve the same thing.............because of the vast instruction set a 64bit processor would accomodate!....
And hey can we upgrade processors in notebooks like in pcs' .I m new to notebooks thats why asking.....mite be a very silly question .............
Regards
