Re: Column: Frequently asked questions about Windows XP Prof x64 E

 

Hi,

 

I have a tablet PC with Windows XP Tablet Edition recently installed on it,

but my system has 4 GB of RAM (TE can see only 3GB or RAM) and a dual core

processor and I think it would make more sense having XP Pro x64, but I know

it doesn't have all the tablet features (software and drivers). Therefore, my

question is, is there a way to get the software and drivers that XP Pro x64

lacks from XP Tablet Edition?

 

Thanks in advance,

 

~Matt

 

P.S. My computer came with Vista Ultimate and I don't like it at all. Even

with 4GB of RAM and a dual core processor it's performance is ... "slugish"

most of the time. That's why I'm thinking of XP Pro x64.

No. There is no way to do that. Your only real option is Vista for 64bit and

Tablet functionality together. If you install XP x64, you will no have any

tablet functionality at all.
