SP2 for XP64?

[Farquaon]

Is there no service pack 2 for windows xp 64bit?

i dont think so, it seems that the xp 64bit has the updated files which usually come with SP2, hope my wild guess is correct.

The only problem has been with getting drivers for some of the older hardware. Other than that pretty stable.

interesting .. will have to give it a try ... and maybe get that little bit extra from my 64bit machine

I have some very specialist software and I cant get the buggers to clean up their code to make it work on 64bit XP. Very frustrating so my best machine just stays off most of the time

Interesting thing.

Running XP64 on an AMD64 is much better than running it on a P4 with EMT64.

Apparently 32-bit apps do run a bit slower, cause they goes through "emulation".
You guys noticed any difference?
