Bought this old-beast from Cumslist for $60 bucks.

Tell me why I shoundn't use Windows XP x86_64 as my main os

I just plan on browsing 4plebs, and watching movies.

Linuxfags need not apply.


I will not install anything other than XP Pro SP1 x86_x64
>>
>>57165462
Because 7 will run just fine on it. Also, why not a newer service pack?
>>
thats a lot of wasted power for shitposting and watching anime

why not just cast your phone screen to a monitor and be done with it?
>>
>>57165462
you shouldn't use xp, because that computer will handly windows 7 no problem
>>
>>57165484
>>57165504
i would use 7, but the only thing xp has asside from nothing being support anything more is the wga and nsakey. meanwhile 7 has more botnet
>>
>>57165494
wasted power

are you living in a 3rd world or something?
>>
Lot's of 64 bit maintained today doesn't work right on xp x64, some compatibility problems or something.
>>
>>57165524
>meanwhile 7 has more botnet
Not really. Both XP and 7 have the same CEIP, and it's off by default
>>
>>57165462
Does XP x64 even properly support directx acceleration? Server 2003 had problems with that.

Expect even more incompatibilities than with XP x86
>>
Get Windows 7, would be great! I think this was a good purchase, I would have bought it.
>>
>>57165601
>ceip
well that sucks.

>>57165621
who gives a shit

>>57165653
sigh..


all windows runs like shit, man. i suppose i must run some sort of loonix then
>>
>>57165732
Just get 7
>>
>>57165542
no anon we all live in the same world with finite sources and there is no point in wasting them
>>
>>57165524
just give it a week being on the interent
it will get some sort of a virus and join a botnet in no time
>>
>xp
>64 bit
>sp1
This is bait

>>57165462
Your screenshot seems like the XP 64 for itanium systems though.
Quote from Wikipedia:
Windows XP 64-Bit Edition, Version 2003 – Based on Windows Server 2003 codebase, which added support for the Itanium 2 processor, was released on March 28, 2003.

Why don't you shove it up your ass sideways?

>I just plan on browsing 4plebs, and watching movies.

Then you should not be running Win XP on that machine. Too much of a security risk, and hassle to maintain. Install Ubuntu with Unity (it's the only DE that doesn't have video tearing) and call it a day.

>linuxfags need not apply

but a shitty computer like that would probably perform better with linux

>browsing 4plebs and watching movies

you can do these things with linux. you only need windows if you're a gaming fag
>>
>>57165462
Man, debian would work great on that.
>>
>>57165462
Well..you won't be able to run some software, XP support has almost universally been stopped by software vendors too, and XP 64bit in particular had some minor compatibility issues because it's based on Server 2003 and behaves like Server 2003 in some respects (virus scanners and some professional software will usually ask you to get the pricy 'corporate editions' because of that). JUst install Win7.

>>57165542
No, I just don't live in mommy's basement and don't have to worry about power consumption

>>57165462
I use it insdie a VM on my main machine that runs GNU/Linux
XP has no security updates, enjoy your OS level unpatched exploits
