Brando569 Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 ive been having problems with XP Pro x64 and just recently ive been having problems creating a stable XP 64 unattended cd, when i go into manage my computer local users and group always has a red X over it and when i go to defrag something using diskeeper it will stop after about 30 seconds and says that it cant continue because a snapshot of the drive is being taken (by idk what ) i know that XP 64 is built off of 2003 server, but which is better (stability/compatibility wise)? ive heard people say that development of XP 64 was pretty much halted half way so more people could work on Vista.so i ask you, whats your choice of 64 bit OSes?

nitroshift Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 I've seen countless debates on this topic. The bottom line is: XP is for workstations (home / office pc's), 2003 Server is for servers. At the end of the day, it depends on what you expect to use your pc for.

olmari Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Well... with 64-bit Windowses it is just about the same which one you use, as both have same exact core. With 32-bit it is another issue, 2k3 has newer core etc.I personally like to use 2k3 as workstation as I do like it's approach to disable anything by default that is not needed compared to XPs enable by default in case user ever needs it...
