    Thanks for the input, I got my new SZ 470 yesterday and love it. basiclly what I am looking to do, is to turn it into a 64 bit system.

    Now Microsoft has a system to send you another dvd for 64 bit, for a small fee, if you have a 32 bit system here. my question is Does that apply to a OEm system bought like sony's?

    Here is the link

    Where are you going to get all the X64 drivers? Aren't the Sony drivers 32 bit only?

    No update yet, I am still trying to get a answer to see if they will send a disc. I am also trying to get with sony and see if they have the 64 bit drivers.

    microsoft, should of made vista 64 bit OS only, not this 32 bit crap.
