Which vista?

[scottish]

Ok i'm going to install vista on new build.

But i got 3 disks and don't know which should go with...

Ultimate 32 bit
Ultimate 64 bit
Business 64 bit

Whats dif between the Ultimate 32 and 64 bit? apart from 64 can read 4gb memory.

Ultimate 32 bit
64 BIts is more for enterpises...
and not all is compatible...

Ultimate 32-bit

Ultimate has a few more features than Business, not too many but as you have the option you'd be silly not to choose Ultimate.

No point using 64-bit if you don't have the right components to get the most of it. Ultimate 32-bit is probably the way to go.

Lol, Ultimate 64 is very compatible, it was XP 64 that was crap for compatibility.

I would personally use 32 unless you have 4GB of RAM.

I do have 4gb ram, but i've never seen my computer use over 2gb of ram. o.0

More than the 128mb I had

32 > 64 as well you really don't need that much processing power from a OS and is more likely to go crazy than do stuff faster.

Depends on what your doing. If your running a program, and you have the right components, and say your running Maya as part of a render farm, and you have all the right components for this, using 64 can allow you to install a lot more RAM. My example - Maya - is a bad example though, as it needs CPU power, not RAM.
