    Hi!
    I've got wista 32 bit version, and the bluetooth is not working.
    i installed all the drivers, but when the OS log in, an error message appears, says there is a problem with the software, it will be closed.
    I reinstalled the drivers, and software, but the problem is still have got.
    64 version could use it properly, or what should I do?

    another question is what is the better for the notebook, the 32 bit or the 64 bit version? which is faster, etc...
    thanks

    64 bit is going to run faster. I'm not sure about why your drivers aren't working though. Unless you need a specific driver that isn't signed I'd suggest going 64 bit as thats the only real problem that I know of in 64 bit is driver support. Also if you dont need it much there's always Virtual PC by M$ as it would allow direct hardware control and just boot up to XP. You can get a free Virtual PC vertion of XP if you look around enough on the M$ site.

    64bit may not run faster. It was never designed to run faster, the processor are, but not the code. It is alot more secure security wise. And it has greater expandability in the future.

    the bluetooth is working now, one driver reinstall solved the problem

    so which is better, runs faster on the IFL90, because in 3DMark 06 I've got only 2800 scores.
    my config:
    1680x1050 TFT
    T7300 2.0 GHz
    8600GT 512MB
    1GB RAM /I will buy + 1GB later/
    1GB Intel Turbo Memory

    freeware 3DMark runs on defaults
