Is My System 64bit compatible

Most of you might wonder that will your PC support 64bit OS (Operating System) or not. Well! Ofcourse OS is the most important, as it then runs the applications. If you are capable to install 64bit OS then all 64bit applications will work.


Why 64bit?


64bit systems are designed to work more efficiently and faster in tasks, as compared to 32bit systems.


How to check if your PC is 64bit supportive?


Open Control Panel and go to “Performance Information and Tools.” Now click on “View and print detailed performance and system information”.


View under System, 64-bit capable, whether it says Yes OR No.


 



If your system is 64-bit compatible, then ofcourse you can install a 64bit OS and use 64bit applications.


*64bit capable system can obviously run a 32bit OS.


If you are using Windows XP then, right click on My Computer & view its properties and if it says “x64”, it means that your PC is 64bit capable.
