I'm not sure but if I had to guess I'd say no, it'll just have the 32 bit version.
I'm currently running 64 bit XP Pro and don't have too many problems but there are a few apps that aren't happy (but fewer than a year ago).
I'll be trying 64 bit Vista soon and expect it'll be just about the same.
thanks for the info once again, bah how could they not put it on the manuf. disk wtf. Welll i will jus use the new ram see how it works,. if not i guess i will get the 64 bit vista. Thats bunk if they dont include the new 64 with a new purchase. Cmon microsoft, its a robbery if people who have preinstalled vista have to pay more for an upgrade to 64 when its included in the store version.
Why are you blaming MS?Quote:

Besides, it makes their life a lot simpler if they only have to come up with only one set of drivers.
Before you decide to upgrade to 64 bit I'd recommend you find out if the necessary drivers are available for your hardware.
Laptops tend to be extraordinarily proprietary and tracking down the software could be a problem.
