XP-64 has a 32-bit compatability mode. I dont know all the ins and outs, btu i assume that's why.

Yep it's called WOW64 is the x86 emulator that allows 32-bit Windows-based applications to run seamlessly on 64-bit Windows, the problem is that MS does not always deem a certification to the software vendor on certain programs.

A PITA would be an understatement, someone else suggest printing whatever is needed as well. He provided a link for hvac system to understand it better and also a couple paperbacks on Volks & Audi that would explain the cars better than the bentley manual. He also suggest for a 1 day Erwin pass of $35 unlimited printing until u run out of ink.

I just figure I have bentley disc in hand and would like to buy VAG soon too so wanted to figure out the windows deal and start reading bentley at least.

yea, boot camp works fine but VMware fusion is just so much nicer: no need to allocate a partition; available any time without reboot, and nearly fool-proof to set up, stable for me.

OTOH boot camp is free

To run two OSs on windoze you need to make two partitions and get a boot loader. Have not done it in ages so i cant be of much more use

With modern hardware, using virtualization only makes sense. It is more than capable to run 2 OSes simultaneously. The convenience of not having to reboot is huge, plus there's nice interoperability between guest and host OS in VMWare Fusion.
