    I've been running my new XPS1330 with 4 gigs of ram on 32bit vista for the past few weeks. I've been wanting to recoop my "lost .5 gigs" by upgrading to 64 bit windows. Has anyone here upgraded to 64 bit vista with this system? What problems have you run into? Were you able to recognize all 4 gigs after doing this? Thanks!

    If you have the X3100 Intel video card make sure you install the drivers that DO NOT cause data corruption.
