    Win 7 64bit. It gets away from large area address problems and uses all the ram you can throw at it. Lord Willy is right, 4 gigs is about tops until the next generation of games that are 64 bit native.

    64bit. Gives you more future hard ware abilities (manly ram upgrades ) then 32bit.

    Use 64bit version since a 32bit version is limited to only using 3 gigs of ram for aplications. NTW just like Empire is a 32 bit application however it has been flagged to use more then 3 gigs of memory if you're operating system and specs can support it.

    Also I've been running the game with no problems on Windows7 64bit edition 15+ hours and no crash.

    64 bit, the only problem I ever ran into with 64 bit was having to run some archaic Qbasic for a programming class.

    yes it works, I'm using it now.
