[QUOTE="Ctrl-Opt-Del, post: 1346616, member: 215112"] ...which is less than the 3.5-4GB limit of 32-bit OSes? Would installing a 64-bit OS be beneficial, inconsequential, or a downright hindrance to the proper functioning of the computer? *Note: The computer in question does have a 64-bit processor, but the motherboard maxes-out at the currently-installed 3GB. Cheers for any insight :) [/QUOTE]
