If it is not broken don't fix it!
attempting to run on a 64 bit system throws up many problems most of which could be cured by the expenditure of perhaps £200.00 but I don't really see the need at the moment.
These programs will not run,
Tuneup (64 bit version on the way)
Snitch (porn pic detector)
Acronis (CD writer)
Photoshop
Wxsat (weather sat picture input)
Spider (screen shot save)
Bitware (my favourite FAX tool)
DN-ATI (best for my 70 Hz monitor)
Word (won't read my archived correspondents)
This hardware won't run
Sigma Magic Hollywood (used for TV test card generation)
TV card
Win fast soft modem (needed to send FAX)
3c905-combo (needed for my LAN to MAC computer and printer)
I have seen discussion of all these problems on various forums and know solutions to some of them may be in the the pipeline but for the moment I am happy to stick with 2000 Professional
Lastly I have just found out that when I operate my Ambit 35100 modem via an ethernet connection it generates rf interference on the 137.500 mHz weather satellite channel
