I know it's not supported but I have a copy that's some two years old on the shelf and I would like to use it.Also if not are there any complications that anyone my think could arise?Such as Quicktime on 64bit or others....

Please I don't need a lecture just you're honest thoughts....

I say, dual boot and go for it

I'm formatting right now,Although the only worries I hold out are Quicktime I've read there are issues with 64bit.....

 I also wonder how thw 3rd party apps will hold out, Like sorenson?

Yes I think the problem is that Quicktime will not run under a 64 bit XP. If you look in the DS Nitris forum, you will see more on this. Would be amazing if MC worked though, the RAM benefit alone would be worth it.

Ok so far so good Quicktime 7.1 works.   7.4.5 dose'nt

What a great day I finally pick up my MC box from the post office and Spain Beats Italy, What more could you ask for?

Vista 64 bit is supported. But remember that MC is still 32 bit, so it is still limited to 4GB of addressable memory. That is better than the old WXP 32 bit, which was limited around 2.5GB.

 I have been using MC 3.0 on Vista 64bit since it came out and I have to say that it works great.

I hit a brick wall everytime I open MC3.0 I get

"unknown software exception (0xc000005)" Not sure what this means so there went nothing...[:'(]

So all I did was change my GC!

Ok so here it is MC3.0 running A OK on Windows XP 64bit

XP 64bit SP2

MC 3.0

GC geforce 6600

175.19 XP 64bit

Quicktime 7.3

Sorenson 5.0

BBC 5.03

Avid FX 5.8

Avid DVD 6.0

Sonic 4.5

Aha so just binning the 8600 and replacng with 6600 worked? super cool, well done mate. Imports/exports working ok? Full screen playback? Let us know how you get on performance and stability wise. Could you not use QT 7.45?

Yeah just putting it to the test now althought seems pretty stable....

Sorry for wake up the topic, may I ask what GC is?

Is it some kind of file/setting in your OS to display/post your OS version. (Like ServerVersion.plist in OsX server 10.4, which stop you from installing iLive.) If so, how to Change it for my WinXp 64?

Thank you.
