been running 64-bit vista a lil while now... not sure what are my problems if any... meaning i've been running some OLD games and having some issues (namely Orange box) but am not sure if its a OS issue or otherwise... if you're using 4Gb of memory or more, there is NO sense in a 32-bit OS.

I think you need to install DirectX 9.0 on Vista (32 or 64 bit)

It's not that it doesn't work. It just gives trouble. I played through the whole of HL2 Ep1 without a hiccup and was playing through HL2 Ep2 but the game is a bit 'jumpy' and I reached a part where the game just feezes...
