32 - 64 bit?
So i only just noticed that my system is not using the 4GB i have in my computer, only 3.something, after a bit of google searching i found this is because im using 32bit OS.
I am considering changing to the 64 bit OS but i have a few questions.
I downloaded both the 32 and 64 when i paid for my upgrade copy as both options were available to me so i thought 'why not'. Can i use the 64 bit now that i have activated my license or am i now only allowed to use 32?
Since my copy was upgrade, will it work for a fresh install (in either 32 or 64)?
Also, Ive never really understood the difference between 32 and 64 bit, can anyone tell me of any problems im likely to encounter if i switch from 32 to 64?
Finally, in case its important, if its all possible i will be doing the switch with my incoming upgrades, CPU will be i5 750 not my current one.
