32 bit ?

hello,

I sometimes see software specified for '32-bit' Vista. How do I find out if
my Vista is 32-bit ? (I have Home Premium I think)

Thanks

KK

Click on My Computer and then the Help menu then select About Windows.

Since you generally have to specifically order 64-bit, you probably have
32-bit Vista. You can check as follows. Right click Computer on the Start
Men, select properties, the page that opens contains that as well as a lot
of other information about your set up.

Right-click on My Computer and choose Properties. It will tell you
there.

Almost certainly you have the 32-bit version. Almost anyone running
the 64-bit version (the other alternative) would know it.
