Your correct I'm using XP Home Edtion and your also correct I am using a 32bit version. The way I found this out for sure is I went to Start>All Programs>Accessories>System Tools>System Information>Components>Display. This gave me the information that I needed. It read Bits/Pixel 32.

That only shows what your display resolution is set at, it has nothing to do with your Windows version.

I don't know if the 64-bit version of XP displays anything or not about being 64-bit however a "possible" way to find out is to do the following:

1. Click Start, Run, and type in: winver

2. Then click OK.

I called HP Technical Support and through them I found out that I have a 32 bit. Thanks for your reply.! ;)
