Another Windows Vista SP1 Feature From TechEd

In one of the later session during TechEd last week I learned of another very cool feature coming to Windows Vista with Service Pack 1.




During his talk Wes Miller, who is writing a ton for TechNet magazine these days mentioned that setup will now be able to run either 32-bit or 64-bit installs.

What does this mean?

Well basically a lot less work for anyone who has to deal with both 32-bit and 64-bit images. After SP1 you will be able to deploy either version of the OS from a single DVD.

So what?

Well the reason this is a big deal is if you are doing anything custom with Windows PE then you currently have to maintain two boot wims (one 64 and one 32)and in extreme cases where you have custom code you have to maintain to codebase sets because 64-bit WinPE doesn't support 32bit code due to the lack of WOW support .

It wasn't clear if WDS would also offer this capability, but it would make sense.
