Thanks,
Below is my cpu info. I'm thinking it's a 32bit cpu. Correct me if I'm
wrong please.
While I'm on the subject, I have a 64bit board that I haven't installed
in a case yet. Plus I still need to get a cpu for it. My question is,
would I really gain anything right now by going to a 64bit machine? Sure
I know I would if I was doing graphics and multimedia, but I'm just
doing record keeping,plus the other regular computer stuff, finances and
email, and so on.
