Umm 64bit because I would like to use all the ram in my laptop.  I only run 64 bit os as all my chips are.  why run a slower version of vista/7/linux ???


Physical Address Extension (PAE, built into Windows) will let you use 4GB of RAM on 32-bit Windows.

I imagine Linux supports PAE as well, never tried it myself though (no machines with more than 2GB RAM currently.)

As for the DVD issue, never experienced that.  Tried VLC yet?
