I have a Quad-core 2.4 6600 and I went to Environment Viriables to check if it was x64 and it's only x86 is this right? I wanted to upgrade to vista 64. |

It is 64bit. Its just showing a x86 architecture because you are running a 32bit version of windows. |

Don''t mistake silence for stupidity.... |
You have alot to learn then. The x86 architecture has nothing to do with whether is it 32 bit or 64 bit as it is present in both. Study up a bit on computer tech before saying something you don't know about. Just a simple google search would solve your issues. And btw, all the quad-cores are 32 or 64bit compatible. |
