Thanks.

Easy, Home Edition only comes in 32-bit flavour. Plus, if you have to ask
the question, then you've got 32-bit, trust me.

You have 32bit most likely

If you have XP Home it is for sure 32bit.

If you have XP Pro..Right click on My Computer and select Properties. If
you see 64-bit in there anywhere u have 64 it it does not say 64 then u have
32.

Windows XP Home Edition is only available as a 32-bit O/S.
Therefore, you are not running a 64-bit version.

Hi

If you are using XP Home Edition, then you have the 32-bit version, not 64-bit.

Greetings --

If you have to ask, you're almost definitely running a 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 64-bit version of WinXP Pro.)
There is, of course, no 64-bit version of WinXP Home.

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," then you have a
32-bit OS.
