WinXP, for new PC

Postby Jas0n » Tue Jan 31, 2006 12:48 pm

Hey guys,
As i am getting my new PC within a few days now, just wanted to know something WinXP related. I have the installation disc for WinXP (32bit i assume) that i used to install in this PC. Can i use that same CD for my new PC which is an AMD64 X2 3800+ ?
Will there be any problems? or do i have to go and buy the 64bit version?

Cheers

The 32 bit version will run on the 64 bit processor.
