Are there other significant advantages with 64 bit other than > 3 GB RAM that I am not thinking of?
Well, I thought it worked without winLIRC. I thought winLIRC was just for those DIY receivers connected to a serial port. Hopefully if your remote is USB then you can just interpret the key as if they were keyboard or mouse clicks. I haven't tested it for myself. But once it's set up, you can compile the script into an exe so you don't even need autohotkey installed to run the scripts. How's that for a neat setup? :p
Seems to me if you are staying with 32 bit you should use windows XP. I just installed XP yesterday and it starts up so fast because I disabled so many services. Uses 50MB RAM after loading up and is fully functioning. Where is the advantage of vista or windows 7 32 bit?
