Hi,

I've mentioned this also a few times, and i hope that it will be adressed
this time...

The following links on
http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/system...t/default.mspx still have
incomplete infomation about GPT.

These 2 docs, only refer to IA GPT, while x86 and x64 now also supports it.

http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/device...GPT-64bit.mspx
http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/device...e/GPT_FAQ.mspx

Those 2 docs should be UPDATED accordingly...

Greetings

Juan Jansen

They support GPT as additional drives only. Neither x86 nor x64 support
GPT as a boot disk.

Hi Darrell,

But what about the GPT FAQ....

Isn't this a general FAQ? should this not be updated to have links to x64
relations?
