Hi, bit of a problem. I put Win7 64-bit on my laptop, thinking that 64 would be surely faster than 32. Problem is it's noticeably slower than XP used to be and I know I need to take it off, it's horrible, constant audio distortion, painful data transfer and on and on.
Anyway, if I get rid of it should I put 32-bit on or should I go back to XP? I like how Win7 handles networks and other things and it's been a success on my much faster PC (that's 32-bit). I like XP too though and at least I know that works. Will 32-bit be faster and work better with my laptop's hardware? Or is Win7 always going to be too slow on an older laptop like mine?
Specs:
1 Gb RAM
1.86GHz processor
Onboard vid / sound / wifi
Bog standard HD, not sure about the speed
Cheers
