Why iam runing 32 bit if my pc is 64?

can I get help?

Not sure I completely follow, but have a read of this - http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/32-bit-and-64-bit-Windows-frequently-asked-questions that can help.

If you have installed 32-bit W7 so that's why its operation? If your system supports 64 - bit requirements - http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/products/system-requirements then you can have 64-bit installed on it, but 32 bits will still work.

Hope I understood your request and the support above. If this is not the case, after return.

  • Why windows xp 32-bit supports only 3.25 GB of ram?

    Why windows xp 32-bit supports only 3.25 GB of ram?

    Tehre is no solution for this problem, and I don't want to install xp 64-bit,

    coz its not user frndly, thank you

    My apologies, I must have misread the topics when I did my first answer. For some reason, I got it in my head, whether you use Windows 7 32 bit.

    I stand by my original comments well that although I appreciated now that you are referring to Windows XP.

    If you want to go to 64-bit Windows XP I'm not sure if this is even possible now. Unless you buy a commercial version second hand. If you can, make sure that it comes with an installation CD.

    To check the compatibility 64 bit XP the following may be useful...

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/896456

    http://support.Microsoft.com/ph/8599

    It will be even more important to check the hardware/software compatibility via the websites of the manufacturers.

  • Why no compatibility 64 bit Vista for Lightroom 5?

    Please don't direct me towards the requirements of the system; I already read again and again that only Windows 7 or 8 are compatible with the LR5.

    I want to know is WHY a Vista 64 bit taken in charge with the beta 5 Lightroom but now not for the current full version of the LR5? Sucks to have been led to believe Vista would always supported, due to the inclusion of a support VIsta 64 on the Beta version, to find that the full release supports NOT VISTA.

    And "not supported" means he won't really install and be usable with Vista 64, or that it simply means that you don't provide technical support?

    Janie please visit http://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/windows-vista-supported-lightroom-5.html.  Also, messages, I saw that you will not be able to install Windows Vista.  I recommend the upgrade of your Windows 7 operating system or later if you want to install Photoshop Lightroom 5.

  • HP Mini Atom N2600 1104: why the OS 32-bit (Windows 7 Pro)?

    I just bought a HP Mini 1104 (Atom N2600 processor).  The architecture is 64-bit capable.  Why it comes with a 32-bit version of Windows 7?  I think that the 64 bit version of Windows 7 would be a more natural match.  Is there some extremely effective in disk space, speed, or power draw using the 32-bit version of Windows 7?

    Thank you

    -Ryan

    Hey, Ryan:

    A 64 bit OS requires more disk space and memory to run a 32 bit OS.  Not double, but more.

    Unless you have 64-bit programs, there is no advantage in having a 64 bit installed - OS, especially if the maximum memory you can install is only 2 GB.

    The processor is capable of 64-bit, but it does that of up to 2 GB of memory.

    On your laptop, you're better off sticking to an OS 32-bit for the aforementioned reasons.

    I even think that somewhere on this forum someone has tried to install W7 x 64 on their mini with the N2600 and he would not go because of an incompatible hardware error message.

    I don't get that because the processor is normally the only keeper there.

  • Why my windows 64-bit 8 running only 32-bit programs,

    I bought the computer only 5 months with Windows 7 x 64 HP, purchased Windows 8, for the price of offer 2 months ago and I noticed that all my programs run thirty-two versions of the thing,

    the reasons why? the copy of windows 8 is also a x 64 bit pro with media center edition

    Until the past two years, the 32 bit is all it was. There was some 64-bit machines, but not enough to make the penalty for software authors.

    The 32-bit programs will be running on a 64-bit computer, makes it also less urgent.

    64-bit programs may run a little faster in certain circumstances, but most of the time, you will notice little difference.

  • Why did for 64-bit OS required VT invited?

    Hello

    I have two identical boxes here (Intel D510MO mainboard):

    1. with CentOS 5.4 64-bit and VMware server 2.0.2 installed

    2. with VMware ESXi 4.0.0 (build 208167)

    The Linux-based system allows me to install anything I want to test in a virtual machine: Windows, Linux, 32-bit, 64-bit. No problems.

    On the ESXi based system I was able to install 32-bit systems. Try to install a 64-bit CentOS fails with an error indicating: "your CPU does not support long mode. Use a 32-bit distribution", some googling showed me that it has to do with the lack of support of VT in the processor.

    But if it is necessary then why doen't VMware Server 2.0.2 need? I have even some VMware server is running on a 32-bit Windows XP 64-Bit.

    Can someone explain this to me?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Maybe in your esxi 4.0 intel VT (I assume that the box has an Intel CPU) is not really compatible.

    Check this post carefully. Maybe you help

    Best wishes / Saludos.

  • Why Labview takes 8 bits to represent a Boolean?

    Since it may take only one of the two values, can there not be represented by a bit?

    The smallest unit of memory controllers is a byte, and reading from memory is 32-bit both, so there is no advantage to using a single bit. If you use a large number of bits, you can hide them in an I32 which is done often for example c.

  • Why windows 7 (64 bit) download does not work for a hp officejet 5610 all-in-one?

    I changed operating systems from XP to Windows 7 (64 bit) on a new Toshiba Portege laptop and downloaded the new drivers from the HP site for my all-in-one Officejet 5610.  Nothing went well.  I can print but not scan, and often copy is extremely slow for no apparent reason.

    I deleted the driver downloaded several times and re-uploaded to start from scratch, but get the message "Fatal error during installation."  I used HP correction for this, did everything it says and ran the download as an administrator.  When the "USB connection" screen, I connect the USB as requested, and I hear my computer accepts this connection.   But the HP installer does not accept or acknowledge inserting the USB key.  It hangs at that time here, and keeps installation disc FOREVER chasing the USB connect screen.

    When I open the HP Solution Center, he informs me that he cannot work because the download of device is not complete.

    There is no file 'help' in the menu 'start '.

    I'm running out of ideas on how to make my printer work properly with the new Windows 7 system.

    Someone at - it suggestions?

    In the case where you hear the ding that the USB cable is connected and that the software does not recognize it, it means that at any given time you connected to the computer via the USB port before running the software. When you do so, Windows takes over and tries to install their own drivers. That causes problems later, when you try to use the software, as it will then not connect when you use the USB cable.

    In this case, you must connect via the usb port and go into Device Manager and remove everything related to your printer. After you do this, unplug the USB cable and restart your computer. When starting BACK, run the software FIRST and then when he asks the USB cord this time, it should recognize the connection.

  • Why not show 16-bit application icons upward from Windows Vista?

    Here's something that was so irritating since Windows Vista. I never solved the problem, but had to use a workaround by extracting a program's icon while running the extraction Windows XP programs, then using that ico file in any shortcuts to different 16-bit programs. In other cases, I use the icon found within a 32-bit program.

    Nothing seems to work when you create a link to the old DOS programs for DOS programs.

    Many of these programs, I always use cannot be replaced and will be replaced for various reasons.

    The problem is, whenever I try to create shortcuts to programs BACK, try to use icons in MORICONS. DLL does not work as it did in Windows XP. A similar problem occurs when you create shortcuts to 16-bit programs.

    In other situations, create shortcuts to files allows to change icons, but the second that the shortcut is pointing to a program icon disappears and I get the default icon of the "white paper" on my desktop and it cannot be changed.

    I thought what to do my usual solution, although it is an inconvenience, would suffice but also extract icons from 16-bit programs does not seem to work as expected in Windows 7 or in Windows Vista. The flavours of Windows and a number of programs that can be used to extract the icons give the error "the file contains no icons" when I know for a fact that the 16-bit Windows exe files contain actually icons! Windows Vista or Windows 7 can 'see' them.

    Anyone experienced this and have a solution to this problem in the long term?

    Hello d. Charles Pyle,.

    supported and the 16-bit icons has been removed in Windows 7. I can't work around the problem, you need to create your own icon as suggested in this post on TechNet.

    My suggestion would be to send your comments to do this on Windows 7.

  • Why CC open 32 bit in my 64 bit OS?

    This is nuts. CC of Photoshop opens as a 32-bit program in my Windows Pro 64 bit system. No wonder I had so much trouble. How can I get CC 64 bit? FWIW, I also have CS5 64-bit installed - and open under 64-bit...

    TIA

    Photoshop comes with versions 32 and 64 bit. The 64-bit version should be in your Program Files folder, and the 32-bit version is in the Program Files (x 86) folder.

    The 32-bit version should run fine on a 64 bit OS (it does for me). What kind of trouble you have?
