While at one time it was easy to make that assumption it isn't anymore.

If you have to ask, you're almost certainly running the 32-bit version of WinXP. I'm not trying to be facetious; I'm sure you'd have noticed paying several thousand dollars more for the Itanium or Itanium II CPU required to run the original 64-bit version of WinXP Pro, or whether or not you purchased a computer with an AMD Athlon64 or Intel EM64T CPU. There are, of course, no 64-bit versions of WinXP Home, WinXP TabletPC, or WinXP MCE. Also, because WinXPx64 is available only as an OEM license, it doesn't come in a box. Windows XP 64-Bit Edition Overview http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/64bit/overview.asp To verify for yourself, Click Start Run, type in "Winver" and press Enter. If the resulting dialog box does not _explicitly_ state that you have "Windows XP 64-Bit Edition" or "Windows XP Professional x64 Edition," then you have a 32-bit OS. -- Bruce Chambers Help us help you: http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety. -Benjamin Franklin Many people would rather die than think; in fact, most do. -Bertrand Russell
