Makes me wonder why you'd want to?
Do you have specific 64bit applications to run?
Do you have more than 4gb RAM

They are the only reasons for running 64bit Windows.
I have 64bit Vista Ultimate on one PC which has 8gig RAM which is why the
64bit O/S I also have a dual boot option on this PC with WinXP Pro 32bit -
can't say I notice any significant difference when using the same
applications in either O/S i.e. Adobe Photoshop I could not say there was an
improvement in performance between them, Pinnacle Studio 12 video editing
suite the same - rendering HD video still takes ages!!!
