First I am thanking everyone for their past support.
I am running 7 RC 7100.....Puter continously locks up........I have to shutdown via the on off button.....It will run ok for 10 minutes and lock up again.......
I have an Intel E6550 dual-core processor. When I first installed Win7 64bit I had problems and a week later my system died. Intel replaced both the motherboard and the processor. My guess is my processor had a problem that only appeared when I went to 64bit. When the replacement arrived I loaded Win7 64bit and haven't had a problem. FWIW, the processor has a three-year warranty.

Im getting this aswell... very random the computer will just freeze.. only noticed it more this wk because ive been playing music when it just goes buzzzzzzzzzzzzz and i have to hard reset the power.. also i have i put the x86 version on a mates older PC and his has started to do this aswell.
What a pain really as Win 7 does run much faster in Games and desktop, im getting 23k with 3dmark06 on vista 64 & 24.5k on Win7 64.. .. back to vista for now..
Sorry Rad was just trying to get point across that you do not have to have more than 4GB of RAM in order for x64 to work properly. More RAM is always going to make your system run smoother with either x86 and x64.
In other words, you should not be put off x64 because you only have 2GB of RAM.
