Can I ask, what are the reasons you want to move to 64 bits on the 
Windows platform?  Is it higher memory requirements or something else? 
The game with the highest memory use I've got installed is AFAIK 
Starcraft II, still at only about one GB.  And as you know, 64 bit apps 
can have lower performance than 32 bits in some cases. So I'm curious to 
know what the reasons are in your case.
