sluthra 0 Posted March 22, 2012 Go 32 Bit. I had a hell of a time with a 64 bit DVR. Difference between Pro and Ultimate is the language packs and bit locker encryption. Just go with Pro. AVOID 64 BIT!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jtetterton 0 Posted March 22, 2012 I tried installing my GV1480 on Windows 7 64bit and found it was not compatible. If you go 64bit, check with the manufacturer to make sure the card/software is compatible. I ended up installing Win7 32bit and it worked fine. Jason Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soundy 1 Posted March 22, 2012 ^And keep in mind, if you're building a machine for this, 32-bit Windows can only see about 3.5GB of RAM, so building a 16GB monster will mean 80% of that memory is wasted. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
