There are two separate versions of Vista RC1 - 32-bit and 64-bit. Both will
work just fine on an x64 computer, so there's nothing wrong with running it
in 32-bit mode. Frankly, the driver support is still better in 32-bit. But
that being said, if you want to run in 64bit mode, you'll need to make sure
you download the 64bit version. It's easy to tell them apart - the 64bit is
>4GB in size, while the 32-bit is 3+GB.

I downloaded the 64bit version because i have an amd 64 3200, but it will not
install. It stops while it is booting up. It says the hardware is not poroper
or i unplugged a usb while it was loading, but i didn't I this on an ide and
a sata with the same result.

Try unplugging all your USB except the keyboard and mouse if you are using
those

Nothing is plugged into the usb ports. I have a Nvidia 6600 in my pci-E, and
a soundblaster audigy in my pci. I have my ethernet plugged in also. Those
are the only things plugged in.
