Hi,

found this thread just passing by...

I have a core 2 duo T7300 cpu running 32 bit windows vista.

Are there any known benefits of moving to 64-bit ?
Or on the other hand cons ?

just looking for some experience in this area..

regards
raghav..

It is a Core Duo, meaning that it is a 32bit cpu. It cannot run x64. The
Core 2 Duo is the 64bit cpu.

Genuine Intel CPU T2250 @ 1.73GHz 1.73 GHz

The processor logo tag on my case says:
Intel Centrino Duo

I don't know if this is enough info or not, just let me know. thanks for
the help,

What processor do you have? That will tell you what it is capable of. The
Core 2 Duo, Athlon 64, and some P4's are 64 bit capable.

Hi, I am currently running 32 bit Vista Home Premium, but I am
considering upgrading to Vista Ultimate and the 64 bit version if I can.
How do I find out If my hardware can support a 64 bit OS? Thanks in
advance,
