Re: How know the OS 32 or 64 bit

I'm not using XP so bear with me please.

I'm using this site
http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/...ystem-is-32-bit-or-64-bit-x86-or-x64-version/

Method 1

1. Click Start, then click on Run or Start Search.
2. Type msinfo32.exe and then press Enter key.
3. In “System Information”, review the value for the System Type item:
* For 32-bit editions of Windows, the value of the System Type item is x86-based PC.
* For 64-bit editions of Windows, the value of the System Type item is x64-based PC.

Method 2

1. Click Start, click Run, type sysdm.cpl, and then click OK.
2. Click the General tab. The operating system appears as follows:
* For a 64-bit version operating system: Microsoft Windows XP Professional x64 Edition Version <Year> appears under System.
* For a 32-bit version operating system: Microsoft Windows XP Professional Version <Year> appears under System.

Note <Year> is a placeholder for a year.

Method 3

1. Click Start, click Run, type winmsd.exe, and then click OK.
2. In the details pane, locate Processor under Item. Note the value.
* If the value that corresponds to Processor starts with x86, the computer is running a 32-bit version of the Windows operating system.
* If the value that corresponds to Processor starts with ia64 or AMD64, the computer is running a 64-bit version of the Windows operating system.

Re: How know the OS 32 or 64 bit

I think its a good idea to know what your computer is running for both hardware and software.

If this thread is solved please mark it solved under the thread tools.
