2. Outline:
 Checking on Windows 7 or Vista.
 Checking on Windows XP.
 More Information

3. Checking on Windows 7 or Vista
If you’re using Windows 7
or Windows Vista, all you
have to do is :
 Pop open your start menu.
 Right-click on the
Computer item.
 And then choose
Properties.

4. Checking on Windows 7 or Vista (cont.)
Now you’ll see the System
information screen—which
you might note that you can
also get to from Control Panel
if you prefer—and down in
the system section you’ll see
“System type”, which will say
32-bit Operating System or
64-bit Operating System
depending on which version
you have installed.

5. Checking on Windows XP
There’s almost no point in checking on Windows
XP, because you’re almost positively running a 32-bit
version. If you insist, however, you can right-click on
My Computer, choose Properties…

6. Checking on Windows XP (cont.)
And then you’ll see the
System Properties window:
 If you are running a 32-bit
version of Windows it
won’t say anything here
other than Microsoft
Windows XP.
 But if you were running a
64-bit version, it would say
that on this window.

7. More info.
What’s the primary difference between the
two? You’ll notice that my Windows 7 laptop
has 8GB of memory—you’ll need a 64-bit
operating system to take advantage of the full
amount of memory, since 32-bit Windows can
only handle about 4GB.
