Memory

[Uriah Heep]

64 bit will only benefit you if you have in excess of 4 gigs memory. 32
bits will normally only see 4 gigs so its better to run unless you have
more. In general 64 bit os's have a larger memory footprint. It is not
unusal to have the memory read a bit less than the memory modules state.
Don't worry all is fine as is
