I believe I have windows 7 home premium for 64 bit systems.
when goto as stated above says
Windows 7 Home Premium
service pack 1
no mention for 64 bit systems.
I don't understand that. Allthough I see under System says 64 bit 'hardware'(which I have)
I do know sp 1 for 64 bit systems was an update I installed in feb. 2011 -but do that change my windows edition? do other updates since then?
It should state under "System Type" which is under your RAM?
Yes Exactly like AddRAM shows you were prob looking at the top
I read listings under system as regard to 'hardware' so System type there means for mine 64 bit. Therefore I could install a windows that only contains capabilies of a 32 bit "hardware" (which will run on a 64 bit hardware) or a windows which contains capabilities of a 64 bit "hardware". So I don't read that as saying what windows I have actually installed. And to repeat. Info under windows edition don't seem to tell me clearly what I have;unless SP 1 implies a Windows to use the abiliities of 64 bit "hardware". Am I correct? or what is it I don't understand?

System type tells you what version of Windows you have installed. if you have 64-bit installed the you have 64-bit hardware. If you have 32-bit installed then you have to look up your processor model to see if you can support 64-bit OS.
