Windows Vista 64-bit editions

64-bit PC can handle larger amounts of memories as compared to a 32-bit system. It can use more Random Access Memory which is 4GB and more. A 64-bit computer is also more responsive in running plenty of programs.

If you want to put some programs and devices with your computer, you need to look for the Windows Vista logos on devices and software programs and make sure that these are compatible with your 64-bit editions of Windows Vista. However, if you can’t find the logos, you can visit this site:Windows Vista Compatibility Center and check the 64-bit compatibility status.

On the other hand, if you’re main concern is having a PC which can take advantage of increasing memory and new hardware or software, then you can opt to a 64-bit PC. But, if you’re really interested in running various programs, or if your hardware and software are already older which is not supported by a 64-bit PC, therefore, you need to choose the 32-bit PC.

I hope this information will help you.

There is really no specific URL or website where you can download applications specific only to your 64-bit Windows Vista operating system. The application’s availability really depends on your need for a particular software or program. Like for example, if you need to install a file compressor like WinRAR normally it is readily available in 32-bit version. And since you are using a 64-bit platform, of course, you also need to install the 64-bit version of WinRAR. So to fix this dilemma, visit WinRAR’s official website and then see if the program is also available in 64-bit version.

But if not, you have no choice but to find another program similar to this that will work on 64-bit Windows Vista. It will be always like this every time you want to install a program on your computer. Normally, program developers make their programs always available in 32-bit rather than in 64-bit because there are only very few users using 64-bit of any operating systems. That’s why it’s easier to install any applications when you are using 32-bit Microsoft Windows because most programs are available in this version.
