[dude_gamer]

I want to install windows 7 x64 ?but i don"t know difference between 32 bit & 64 bit?
my PC configuration is 2GB RAM,500GB hard disk,Core 2 duo processor (2.93Ghz),Intel G41 motherboard.my PC configuration meets minimum requirements for windows 7 64 bit?
and why 64 bit O.S. is better then 32 bit?

32-bit and 64-bit Windows: frequently asked questions

1) in short 64 Bit OS is better than 32 bit ,can use more than 3.5gb of memory

2) U need 64 bit CPU to install 64 bit OS

Look in device manager.

1) Under processors, open properties > details > Hardware Ids.

It should be something like "ACPI\GenuineIntel_-_Intel64_Family_6_Model_42"
64 here proves that your CPU is 64 bit.

when i checked as per your method processors, open properties > details > Hardware Ids in device manager then X86 family appear but when i checked windows 7 Advisor it says that its compatible with windows 7 x64.

I have a que. also ? {may be more than 1}
Why my 7 running Net without LAN driver?
and My mother board is also compatible with 7

But there is no Lan driver for windows 7 64 in Asus site

I have tikona connection and it gives me speed of 2 mbps for first 4 gbs, but it is giving me speed of 256 kb only . is it because there is no LAN driver?

hi NitrousNavneet,
my configuration is almost same as you have.
are you running windows 64 bit really?if yes then positive signal for me?i also interested to install win 7 X64.
and as per your speed concern every internet service provide give 230-250 speed for 2mbps connection.

hey navneet i think there is two steps which solve your problem.
1)virus problem in your PC.so update your antivirus & Scan your full PC.problem still then follow 2 step.

2)contact your tikona internet service provider & launch complaint they will change your network setting.(IP Address etc).

@NitrousNavneet that is Know As "F.U.P" after usage of 4GB you get only speed of 256kbps.. check ur plan on internet or call customer care . they will tell you more about F.U.P active on your Connection..

@hirenjp: your proccy supports 64bit OS.
for more details use speccy.

@NitrousNavneet: LAN driver is needed when u use LAN Card.

Please suggest a good AV I have 1year net protector ,But topgear told me to

@NitrousNavneet: LAN driver is needed when u use LAN Card.

AS per my Advice download & install kaspersky antivirus or ESET (NODE 32) Antivirus.if you do not want to install antivirus software then try kasper sky online scanner or eset online scanner.

ESET :: Get a FREE Online Virus Scan

or

Free Virus Scan - Kaspersky Lab
(service stopped because Coming soon:A new, improved version of the Kaspersky Online Scanner in few days)

i have core 2 duo pocessor 2.93 Ghz & 2 GB RAM.shall it support win 7 64 bit.

All CORE 2 DUO CPU are 64 bit. As you have 2 GB RAM, you won't see any difference in performance.

thanks noob, now i am confident after listening from u all that my system is compatible with 64 bit OS.but there is some software which do not run in 64 bit OS.this information i got from windows 7 upgrade advisor.

is there any possibility to run these program in compatibility mode or In windows 7 there is XP mode is also there where we can use that 32 bit program?

and yes i have virtualization technology but XP mode feature required atleast 3GB RAM,but my system has 2 GB RAM(DDR2) is there any way to use 4GB (DDR3) in same machine or i have to buy DDR2 type only.

 

[noob]

All 32 bit softwares are backward compatible. BUT dont install 64 bit OS as you wont be getting any performance improvement over 32 bit as you have only 2 GB RAM.

Also, make sure you have all the 64 bit drivers for your devices. Usually Windows installs it ..but still in some cases you might need to manually install 64-bit device drivers.

To run any application in XP mode , simply right click on that file/icon and set its compatibility level to 'Windows XP'

ok so you have to say that upgrade of RAM Make performance better.so,please tell me that.my system will support 4GB RAM(DDR3)?as my 2GB RAM IS (DDR2).

 

[noob]

if your motherboard supports DDR3 then no issues..else you need to get DDR2 RAM

Exactly which D41 model ? we have DG41WV(supports DDR3) , DG41RQ & DG41TY(does NOT supports DDR3)
