Hi!
The 64 Bit version is much more stable than anything in the Windows
world, but if I were you I would rather use the 32Bit version. It does
some things (codecs, flash, some drivers, perhaps wifi(?) ) a little
bit smoother and there is no real big advantage for a normal home user
to go 64 bits at this time.

Just my opinion.
