    I may be wrong, but I don't think the NC20 supports the 64 bit OS. I know the NC10 doesn't.

    Cool - I don't think anyone else has tried 7 on the NC10.

    However, under the bonnet, 7 is just an upgrade of Vista - so if the NC20 will run 64 bit Vista - it will also run 64 bit 7. Best to give it a go on a separate partition to the standard XP installation.

    The new VIA Nano hs x86-64 instructionset which is the same as AMD64. It can therefore handle 64 bit os Just to clarify.

    the driver for vx800 in windows 7 is unavaliable.

    That wouldn't surprise me wika, this is the first consumer laptop using that chip if I'm not mistaken. Also Windows 7 is still in beta. Good to know though. I could be wrong too, I know it is x86-64, but maybe it can't handle 64bit oses for some reason :/ Interesting to figure out. I was planning on installing ubuntu x64 on it. We'll see I guess... Anyone else install x64 ubuntu on an NC20?
