Right-Click MyComputer icon on the desktop and it should be in General
Tab. If you don't have the desktop icon then Start, MyComputer.

You are almost certainly running a 32-bit operating system. To be sure, you
can look at the General tab in the Control Panel System applet. Here's a
link with step-by-step instructions. You only need to do the My Computer
section.

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.

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.
