If you have to ask wit Windows XP - you have a 32bit version...

You definitely do as you said "Windows XP Home"...
 
There is a 64bit version of XP Pro, however you are not using it so just
download the 32bit version. No issue.

Colin Barnhorst is not downloading anything (at least in this conversation).
Please include some hint of what you are responding to in the future. ;-)

If you are unsure, you have the 32-bit version.

You would certainly remember the extra cost and effort needed to get the
64-bit version of XP up and running with fully compatible hardware.

And XP Home is *only* available in 32-bit.
