Dynamips Will run in 64 Bit windows, it just will not run in 64 bit mode, same as in Vista. I have tested this as mentioned below in a previous post.

the whole benefit to using Windows 64 bit is the ability to address more RAM which is paramount in dynamips. Cygwin works just fine and as you mentioned is part of the windows dynamips install. It will run on both platforms (32 and 64 bit) with no problems.

 For everything else, it is true.
 Dynamips @ windows required additional gadgets
(cynwill ? )that is only available with 32 bit, the
last time I look.
 I will have some new hw with vista: I will config.
dynamips-64 and let ya all know...

unix is not the only option for 64 bit computing:

You can use windows 64 bit (which I use) or Vista
ultimate 64 bit (which I
also have working) or server 2003 which works good
as well. all will address
RAM above 3GB. Personally I like windows XP 64 bit
which I have in one
machine 8GB worth of memory. I have run up to 16
instances with no problems
and had more than enough room for more.
