I have an old Athlon 3200+ 2.2 GHz machine, running fine for past five years, very very soon to be sixth (tomorrow is its birthday, lol). It's got 1 GB of DDR RAM and a GeForce 6800. I want to install W 7 on it, but I can only find a 64-bit disc. I know MS says that the requirements are 2 GB for 64-bit, but I've heard of others managing to install 64-bit fine on 1 GB RAM machines. I'm only going to play a few FPS games with low requirements.
I know 32-bit would most likely run faster than 64-bit, but I just want to know will 64-bit run OK without too many problems, and will ReadyBoost help with this? I have several USB flash drives that would seem to qualify.
Thanks. I'm just going to leave this overnight.
