That doesn't necessarily suggest a 64-bit problem, but if you upload the dmps, we could take a look for you.I couldn't agree more...I happen to have both - 32bit and 64bit Windows7. In my book the 32bit is to be preferred with up to 4GB of RAM. The 64bit gives me nothing but problems whilst the 32bit is smooth sailing since RTM was released. The problem is that all preinstalled systems seem to be 64bit these days. I needed a new laptop and there was no way to find a decent system with 32bit. I will not touch 64bit again until they have done their homework and buy a 32bir OEM license to replace the 64bit system on my 4GB laptop. 64bit reminds me the early days of Vista.
A 10 year client called a few weeks ago and needed a new laptop. They insisted on Win 7 and wanted it today. I went to my local Staples and picked up a new Dell running X64. I’m not a Dell fan but had limited choices. Since then, it’s been nothing but GRIEF!
Constant lockups, ongoing BSOF’s, extremely slow, and a constant pain in the A$$! Since the release of this product, which is only 2 months, Dell has 2 bios updates, updates for all loaded applications, and has not been able to resolve the issues.
I would guess that if it was running 32bit instead of 64 this would not be a problem. As I continually monitor these kind of post I don’t understand why MS hasn’t addressed the clear issues that exist with x64…
