    I'm planning on putting xp on my precision m70.
    Does anyone know if it's 64bit-able?

    Thanks

    EDIT: I'm just going to try and if it doesn't work I'll use 32bit

    I look up Dell website and there is no XP 64 driver for M70. I don't think it will work.

    Yep. I just tried and setup halted me saying that x64 wouldn't work on it.
    So I'm installing 32bit now.
    Silly me I should've known because the lappy only supports 2GB of ram

    Thanks f4ding
