I run Windows x64 Pro which is based on the Windows Server 2003 x64 kernal. I have no problems running the server in WOW64 (x86 emulation) mode. I have yet to compile a natice x64 version.

If you look in the headers, you'll notice that TGE will croak a compile in 64-bit mode pretty quickly.

However, it runs fine as a 32-bit process on a 64-bit OS. It does, however, appear to have some timer issues on some dual-core systems.
