Notes 8.5 crashes my O/S (Win Vista Business 64 bit)

I’ve got Notes 8.5 running on my new Windows Vista (64-bit) Dell Precision M6400 - I know it is not supported, but at least it works reasonably well!

My problem is that every time I quit Notes, it freezes the Operating System as well. The same goes for Sametime 8.0.2 (stand alone), whenever I go into “Preferences/Telephony, Audio and Video”. Since it is the same behaviour for both Sametime and Lotus Notes I guess it has something to do with the JVM (?), but how do I really find out what is causing this crash and is there a way of fixing it?

Is anybody else seeing the same behaviour, or is it something with the installation of my O/S that is the problem?

Similar issue on Vista Home Premium x64. It gets a little sluggish from time to time. Sometimes if I switch back to the admin client, it will wake up the notes client.

Running nlNotes.exe (Basic Mode) works better, but I miss the standard client features.

I checked the eclipse 64 bit forum, where it appears it work has been posted on the board. x64’ers will have to be patient on this, I’d like to believe that IBM has some 64 bit notes client work underway.
