I have the 32 bit XP and 64 bit XP on my machine(dual boot). I haven't had any problems yet. Silo works nice on XP 64, Wacom has drivers for XP 64. I keep my 32 bit XP just in case some new programs I try refuse to work in XP 64 though.

If you only have one computer…
I had xp 64 on a p4ht machine at work, I used it for about 2 years with no issue, the only reason I was forced to change was because the office's free virus software didn't have a free 64 bit version. I was running max 8 and ps cs2 on it with no issues, it was a dell machine though and had a quadro graphics card. My new…
This is the one I have as well. And yes you can only install it on one PC although you can make changes to your hardware as long as it's not mayor, like changing the motherboard.
