Win XP Pro vs. WinXP x64 Pro

Hi,

64-bit is a new architecture than the 32-bit architecture. Programs have to
be written specifically for 64-bit to take advantage of the 64 bit hardware.
even 32 bit softwares will work but they will not improve.

Windows XP Professional x64 Edition is designed to meet the demands of
customers who require large amounts of memory and floating point
performance in areas such as mechanical design and analysis, 3-D
animation, video editing and composition, and scientific and
high-performance computing applications.
