Re: x64 Processor vs 32/64 bit OS

Hi Hector!

So to confirm with Yes and No, the R2 Windows package will NOT give you an
option to not use the EM64T mode of the CPU and will automatically detect it
and install the 64 bit version of Windows 2003?

No. Your *CURRENT* CD only contains the x64 version of w2k3-r2, so you cannot choose the x86 version!

BUT: You can buy the x86 version of the w2k3-r2 edition which will install the x86 version (and then you cannot choose to install the x64 edition!)

Greetings
Jochen
