No. However, you cannot start the Vista Setup for Vista x64 from a Win XP
x86 desktop (you could from a Win XP Pro x64 desktop). You must boot the
system with the dvd.

Microsoft is saying there are a lot of people having problems using the
image file to create a dvd. The predominant problem appears to be burn
speeds. Burn your dvd at 2X or 4X but no faster. See if that helps.

I am assuming that you are running WinXP x86 on a 64-bit capable computer.

 

Thank you so much, Colin. I know what you are saying.

thank you for your help.
