Windows XP Professional 64-bit Edition for Itanium is a very limited version at all in terms of sales. However, this product supports an excellent microprocessor technology, the IA-64 used by Intel Itanium processors and Intel Itanium 2. Support provided by Microsoft is support to all the features of the Itanium processor, but because very few applications are designed for the Itanium processor, the spread is very little product.
The difference of the features of Windows XP Professional x64 Edition is support for the Itanium processor, with all its innate architecture, such as EFI (Extensible Firmware Interface), and GPT (GUID Partition Table). Although the Itanium processor is the processor with the most efficient performance, Itanium can not run programs designed for Windows XP 32-bit version and Windows XP x64 Edition. When running programs that are not designed for it, its performance was very low.
Applications supported are very few, and limited to applications that are useful for high-end computing, such as database applications, and scientific applications. If the Windows version of the x64 and 32-bit support multimedia acceleration, Windows is not equipped with the function, because the processor is not equipped with special instructions for multimedia acceleration.

Some of the judge, this is because Hewlett-Packard is not so successful with this product. Although it has been discontinued production process, Microsoft still supports Windows XP 64-bit Edition is up to the entire Windows XP stopped its support by Microsoft.
