Hi folks,
Needed a new PC for the house and found a good deal on an HP that was loaded with Vista 64 Home Premium etc. I don't use this machine for any "serious" photo editing etc (it's our main web access etc computer), but now and then I will do some light Photoshop work on it.
Now I'm reading all sorts of info about problems with 64 bit software and hardware compatibility issues etc.
Before I spend a few hours transferring files etc to this machine.....I'm wondering if it's worth the hassle or not. Anyone here using Vista 64bit OS who can share tips, thoughts or info about it?
I assumed that by now, 64bit OS compatibility would be a non-issue....maybe not. I do have some older hardware I'd like to use with this computer (Epson 1280, HP LaserJet 1000).
TIA,
Gary
