Almost certainly it's 32-bit Windows. Your question is a fairly common
one, and I've never seen anyone who had to ask be running the 64-bit
version (which is much less common). If you were running 64-bit
Windows, almost certainly you'd know it.

But to be sure, right-click on My Computer and choose Properties. If
yours is the 64-bit version, it will say so there.

You have 32-bit.

This can be said with assurance because you would know *why you specially
ordered*, and *paid more for* the 64-bit version, and had be very careful
when buying peripherals.

Ronald,

If you download the 32 Bit & you find that you have 64 Bit then it will
install to Program Files (x86)

You can find out your version by right-clicking My Computer | Properties &
seeing on that tab. Otherwise use System Information to tell you

Ken & Patrick are speculating with your version of Windows however 99% of
systems use the 32 bit version
