Acer aspire 1410 - 64-bit? Can the core2 Solo processor on the 1410 handle a 64-bit OS (windows 7, for example) assuming I were to upgrade to 4gb of ram?

I'm running both Win7-64 and Ubuntu 10.04LTS-64 (dual boot). No problems at all. Great little laptop.

I just ordered a Acer 1410. It's Core Solo chip uses a 64-bit instruction set, so it should run a 64-bit OS no prob.I will be installing 64-bit Ubuntu as soon as it arrives.

I actually found a newer model with the core 2 solo that ships with Windows 7 64-bit installed. Windows 7 is awesome and the system really flys. I still have the stock 2 gigs of ram.

I have installed (custom/clean install) and now running Windows 7 Professional 64bit on 2 acer 1410 Core 2 solo laptops (mine and wifey's), also added 2 gb RAM (total 4gb RAM now). Both worked without downloading any additional drivers from Acer website. Just need to get the driver for the Synaptics touch pad to get the added funtion of dragging/magnify/scroll by using the touch pad. I was skeptic before..see my earlier post but installed 64bit (thanks to Microsoft for $29 Win7 Pro 64bit Student discount) vs the 32bit free upgrade...my $300 laptop is more like a $600 AS1810 version now!

Chris, Did you upgrade your 32bit Vista (1410 with Core2 Solo) to 64bit Windows 7? I am thinking of doing the same thing (if I can get 64bit OS from Acer), so did you do a clean install? Thanks for any feedback.

(probably a little late to reply) i would assume if it were Windows 7 capable at all, it should run against anything Windows 7.. including 64 bit. that's a good question.. it really is sad that the consumer can't just pick one to their fancy and expect it to run D:they should all run on anything with today's day and age, go figure.

Yes, I have been running it on W7 64bit since it came out.Just clean out the old drivers, go to their site and download new drivers.

It self-installed in less than a minute in both my HP G56 laptop running Windows 7 (64-bit) and my Acer Aspire One running Windows 7 Starter (32-bit). Of note, when plugging it into my G56 AFTER already being logged in, the drive runs noisily, and continues to run, searching for a floppy until finally inserting a disk.

Yes the processor with in this computer can work with both 32/64 bit os.....I can say yes because is compatible with 32 and 64 bit.

Yes, the Core 2 Duo - E8500 is 64 bit. You do not have to have to run a 64 bit OS to use one, but I'm running Vista 64 home with no issues after upgrading to it.

Yes, I am 100% sure on the 64-bit thing. I took a screen shot here: http://i.imgur.com/RiLJn.jpg

I believe it is 64 Bit... It's an Intel core I7.. Fast... Excellent system...

To be more specific, it is an Intel Core2 64bit processor that can run either 32 or 64 bit operating systems. So it will behave differently depending on what OS is installed. Either OS version was available when it left the factory, but I presume the OS has been upgraded.

I tried to find the full specifications for your model with no sucess. Not even in the user manual on Acer's website. I know 8 GB modules didn't work on older notebook models, that happenned to me with my old Aspire 5740 from 2010. It should on this newer model, but I would try to contact acer to ask for the memory sizes and frequencies your notebook Works with. All I found was that it can take 12 GB max, so if it is 8 GB, you could be able to add it to your 4GB. Don't forget to check if memory frequency is 1333, 1600 or whatever so you can buy the right memory . I'd also complain to Acer that they're not offering full technical specs on their website for this model. At least not that i could find. So, sorry for not having all the info. Hope it helps some.

Does the core 2 solo version come with a free upgrade to windows 7? I wasn't able to find that anywhere, could you give me a link?Also, the model with the core duo processor is currently unavailable. I couldn't find any information if its been discontinued or not, anyone know if its coming back?Thanks

64-bit, because of the multiple cores on the CPU; This laptop is dual-core (2). But in regards to the RAM, 32-bit supports a maximum of 3-4GB and 64-bit supports from 4GB and up, but this laptop only supports up to a maximum of 2GB due to motherboard limitations.

64 bits... This laptop has been my best investment ever. One of the weak points is not Full HD
