This computer came with XP. I have had Windows 7 32-bit running on it for years without issue. I now wish to install Windows 7 64-bit.
GRC SecurAble reports the following (borrowed from another question):
The BIOS (InsydeH20 1.10 rev 3.5) provides no HAV/VMX/Virtualization options.
My questions are:
- Is HAV necessary for 64-bit Windows 7 to run, or just for VM/XP mode stuff (which I don't do)?
- Is there any point in installing 64-bit Windows 7 on a machine this under-powered?
