    Unless you special ordered the 64 bit version, you can be 99% certain you've got the standard 32 bit system. Even getting the 64 bit version of Vista installed on a new computer requires it being specifically requested.

    ^^^agreed. Although if you want to check you should be able to right click my computer and select properties. Look at the general tab. Under sytem, if it doesn't say 64-bit then you have 32-bit.
