Vista - Needed any 64 bit apps

I have a brand new HP 9700 running Vista Home Premium 64. i am having alot of issues finding compatable AV,AS<AM, and system tools like reg defrag, reg cleaners. On my old machine i have Sys Mechanic Pro HD Sentinel and others and all seems to only support 32 bit. i have looked at stores and the boxes never specify so i went ahead and purchased Sys Mech Pro 8 and it was not 64 compat. Now its non returnable. So anyone with any names of good softs, games included, apps, tools. that are 64 compatable. i would appreciate it. Dunno if its me but i have tried 3 AV none would work on htis OS

The only tool you need is an AV, things such as reg cleaners/ sys
maintenance utilities will only cause you grief

tuneup utilities 2009 works great on 64 bit vista. I use it all the time

try lookin at these programs at auslogics

www.auslogics.com

they are free and work a treat

Thank you all. i noticed i posted late last nihgt and al ready my post is on page 4. it appears as though i am not the only 1 having vista questions.

You are right they can be but i find i run bettter with a clean registry. however i have used reg cleaners and defraggers that ran in the background. I ended up with broken shortcuts and things not running. But i hear so much aboout having a red error can cause issues but is this just "Hype" to sell softs or is it true. It's like i can clean my machine then run some freebie scanner and it will find 40 errors right after cleaning. Its like some softs "create" errors to sell softs

your spot on re they are just tryin to sell software its due to the consumer thinks they are good due to finding alll these thigs wrong ive proven this in the past as a program after scan told me of so called errors and then i went lookin myself they where never on the pc to start with ..well thats my 2cents worth...
