Summary
Windows Server 2003 x64 Editions and Windows XP Professional x64 Edition provide a highly compatible, high-performance, and secure computing experience that takes advantage of the much larger memory address space and improved security and efficiency of the x64 processors shipping from AMD and Intel. The x64 Editions of Windows support 16 TB of virtual memory address space and from 32 GB to 1 TB of physical RAM. The x64 architecture maintains support for the existing x86 registers while increasing the number and size of the available registers to improve the overall efficiency and performance of applications. The improved security built into the x64 architecture, along with the DEP of Windows, provides an additional layer of security against malicious software. The high-performance and compatibility of the WOW64 subsystem eases the transition from 32-bit Windows to 64-bit Windows by enabling high-performance access to the existing base of more than 10,000 32-bit Windows applications during the transition to 64-bit versions. With the release of the x64 Editions of Windows, 64-bit computing is poised to become the mainstream of personal and corporate computing.
