Windows XP Professional - 64-bit Edition has been added. Improved DDR2 support. Better reliability whilst product database is being synchronised.

Look out for some more improvements to the system builder soon, including improved memory compatibility checking, as well as increased support and compatibility checking for Intel's new CPU ranges.
