If you read the whole article it states that you'll need to make a modification in the DEP. And that the problem only occurrs when using a handfull of very specialized programs.

Quote:
Microsoft said in its advisory that PCs with 64-bit AMD processors may restart repeatedly after installing Service Pack 2, if those machines are also configured to enforce so-called data execution prevention (DEP) and contain hardware that requires a driver software known as Mpegport.sys.
Note the IF and the AND in the quote.

I see no reason the rethink buying an AMD 64-bit. These circumstances are to vauge (and easy to work around i needed) to casue a problem.




And since this is my first post I think a bit HI! is in order.
