Where's my RAM? or How I learned to work in 64 Bits Part 3

After much trial and error, I've finally gotten my x64 Windows XP Pro install completely stable (for Windows that is :)

One casualty in the war for system stability was unfortunately my brand new Nvidia graphics card. Shame on you, Nvidia!!! Why can't you write a stable driver that actually allows 3d to work on my x64? Alas, the onboard ATI fared better. I was able to resolved some BSOD issues on shutdown as well as random lockups by downloading the latest (not even beta!) ATI Cataylst drivers.

Unfortunately this sort of thing isn't limited to Windows XP x64. Join me into my jump into Windows Vista 64 bit.
