To run 64-bit applications and a 64-bit O/S, a platform will need an IA-32 processor with Intel®64, along with updated BIOS and drivers that have been modified for Intel®64. Contact your BIOS vendor and adapter vendor to get the BIOS and drivers that have been optimized for platforms with Intel®64.
