HI,
I've tried the search function and apologies if it's stated somewhere.

It mentions compatible with windows XP, but has anyone tried with the 64bit version of XP. That's what I've got and loads of things don't work with it.

it should work as in connecting and being able to transfer files etc, don't think we have had a 64bit windows xp user, definitely had vista and win7 though
only thing is firmware updating, 64bit systems have proved difficult for most, some have used the update tools to update the player on win7 64 but i could not get it working
so for updates you may need to ask nicely of a mate and borrow a 32bit XP machine

anyway, for general use and files copying etc it should be fine
welcome to the forums

Thanks for getting back to me, I can borrow a 32bit XP laptop for updates I think, but good to know these things. Winp XP 64bit is the OS the world forgot!

I have an S-flo2 and an AMD 64 bit computer with XP. There have been no problems with them. However, Window's 7 created problems with my S-Flo and my OS-43. XP with either a 32 or 64 bit AMD or Intel PC worked fine with both of my players. I cannot comments on an Intel 64 bit PC with XP as I never have one.

That sounds good, cheers. I have an Intel, not sure if it's the windows XP 64bit (lack of) drivers or I've got dodgy USB ports, but I've found it temperamental at times when hooking stuff up. Will probably be a while before I get the s:flo2, but I'll try to remember to report back.

No drama either way as housemate's old laptop is 32bit XP. :)
