Could you tell me, is it under circumstances necessary to switch to another BIOS version? Thanks, Adrian. Migrate, not upgrade. Huge difference. Posted from Windows Central for Windows So dvp 8 looks like it meets the requirements but people have said in the past it can’t handle 64 bit windows Any opinions? IN the real world. People will argue this to the hill but, unless you have MORE than 4gb of memory, there is very little advanage to going to 64bit. If you up your memory to 8gb you NEED x64 to see the memory.

You do notice this clearly on a little older systems, even if your CPU is x64 compatable. I have seen many cases of this over the years, with XP, 7 and 8. If your system is running good, and you have all the apps you need, with no problems, why change it?

I recently upgraded to bit and don’t know what went wrong but the Games and videos were lagging like anything fps drops and also YouTube videos were lagging at p. This made me roll back to bit. Step 1: Ask yourself why, in , you had a 32 bit installation around to begin with.

Because, it had 32bit installation of windows 7, few years back. And with simple upgradation to windows 10, I got the 32bit version. Well, that’s the story of one of my laptops! Bought a gaming rig about 4 years ago and there’s two choices about how the 32bit got on there. First it came with 32bit In hindsight, and knowing quite a bit more about computers now than did I then I just wonder why they would do that.

Second is, had a problem and took it to the computer repair guy and he reinstalled it So maybe it had 64bit and he reinstalled 32bit on it instead Still, wtf.. Never even noticed it though. Performance wise, it did fine. Only realised that it needed to be updated when I bought a new game it asked for a 64bit system. That said a lot of computers and laptops come pre installed with 32bit For office computers or people typing it’s not like they need the extra ram or care about the technical side of it.

Potato brain generic end users It’s a WindowsXP x64 Edition article in I upgraded my friends Lappy to Win 10 64 bit iso. She had genuine Win 7 32 bit.

So i jotted down her key and formatted and installed Win10 but now it doesnt accept the win 7 key, can someone explain whats wrong? I thought the november update accepts Win 7 genuine keys. I don’t think that works yet Just call Microsoft. I’m considering 64 bit win 10 on my Dell Inspiron 15 laptop as it has crippled 32 bit driver support I thought it was going to be actual upgrade from 32 bit to 64bit from within the 32bit OS.

Anyway, its all good. So what am I doing wrong? I have created the image on a removable usb drive, all that seems easy enough. But I can’t get the USB drive to boot. I have chnaged the boot order, but still it fails to load.

When I try to run the setup file, it says something along the lines of not haveing the right version. I have a Dell Venue 11, that is 64bit architecture Any guidance woud be appreachated. Cheers Paul. Your system is probably uefi Uefi64 is required in order to work. That’s the problem. I own the same Venue tablet.

I am actually ahving a problem here. So is my pc compatible to 64 bit? If your version of Windows states Windows 10 bit, its running bit. The X in x64 refers to nothing. Just another thing Microsoft came up with. Like they called a stiffy drive a floppy in Windows. How to upgrade to bit? Install the bit twice. Does this method work on dreamspark windows 10 education edition?? Will this work on windows 10 education acquired from dreamspark??

That is the most complicated thing I’ve ever seen Just for your own product key. I don’t have the key with me anymore but would like to upgrade from 32 to Looks like it’s just not possible. Helps full of this post. Thanks you. When you download the program to do the update, be sure to use a blank Empty memory stick. I used one with lots of files and data on it and all of it was completly wiped out.

The program doen NOT ask you where to save the files, it gives you a choice of the hard drive maybe there you can pick a location or the USB port. No choice there! Now I’m runing a recovery program trying to get back an Excel file I have been using all year to track my bill payments. Thankfully, I have a backup on another memory stick that is only a week old.

I will only have to re-establish a weeks worth of the data I lost. Hello There, Can you share how to restore the lost data? Mine lost either. I have the windows 10 latest version which is 32bits. I was in contact with one of my friends he says that if you want to change the processor from 32 to 64 the process may lead to the deleting of all ur file.

You’ll be just re-installing the windows therefore as long as there aren’t any files in the C: Drive Assuming that your windows is installed in Local Drive C. And i dont have an activation key that works it says its not activated. Thanks for the walk through. Just moved my 8 year old Samsung laptop to 64bit without a hitch. It’s really running so much better now, although i did upgrade the ram to 8gb too. Very nice Article about windows Interview guide for Active directory,system administrators www.

Spam, please remove. Hello, I have question. In the progress I upgrade my Windows, I forgot to back up my Flashdisk. Now the data in my flashdisk is gone. Can anyone help how to restore my lost flashdisk data? Did you solve it somehow? If yes, could you help me in it please? Hi Everyone! I have a probably huge problem and I really need help.

I followed the instructions and I used a portable USB flash drive for the windows media creation tool which is a Seagate back up plus, and it has 1 TB storage place. My problem is that I have or had about GB data on this device, mostly really important pictures, movies, music etc. Where are my other almost GB and the most important, where are my data???!!? What the heck just happened? Is my old data still on it somewhere?? I hope there is a way and someone could help me.

I am very desperate now I messed up so bad. You should have used a USB memory stick, not your external hard drive, Media creator will format the drive, the message that came up saying it will format is a clue.

Formatting don’t really erase the data these days, it just put a marker that says the drive is empty.

There is software around that may get data back, but you may be better off getting your drive back to a data recovery company. Maybe someone will come on here that will be better help, but I think sending the drive to a professional may be your best option, not cheap, well not int he UK anyway,.

Any thoughts on the difference between Office 32 or 64 bit versions.? Office techs have always advised me to download the 32 bit version — is that a legacy thing or a real difference? My Sister-in-law updated her machine to 64 bit Windows 10 because she got a photo editor that needed 64 bit. I instructed her on how to get Windows media creator, but the rest she done herself. Sometimes the reason it is running 32 bit is because there are no 64 bit drivers available for some piece of hardware in the machine.

bit and bit Windows: Frequently asked questions

 

Some very old machines had hardware limitations that won’t use more ram. With SSD and Win10 x64 it runs like a champ. Might get another decade of use. Promoting W10M 8-bit tile art. My older PC is stuck in 32bit, it was able to run 64, didn’t want to clean install Windows. I just update my old PC to x64 but I have a question about my new pc. Posted from my phone Keep Calm Because P. You Are. Generally you’ll find that higher frequency mhz memory will have higher CL in order to keep the modules stable.

Yes; in that example the CL14 example is faster lower latency accesses than the CL15 kit, since the frequency is the same. I believe that 64bit also enables some extra security layers which is one of the bigger benefits. However if you have a 2GB tablet for example , even if the processor supports 64bit instructions, it’s not worth it as the 32bit OS uses a little less memory.

For a laptop or desktop with 4GB memory, running 64bit is likely going to be worth it. For anything with more than 4GB memory, you need 64bit Windows.

Glad those days are over and I’m now on Windows 10 x Great walkthrough, but the real quesiton is this: If you have a 32bit version of Windows, what would be worth the effort of doing all of this to get to 64bit? There are a lot of myths here, and not a lot of common sense when people consider between the two verisons: 1 You need a 64bit OS to address 4GB of RAM.

Often you will still not have access to all 4GB of ram, but that is because most computers have onboard graphics that takes part of that space, and the system itself has a reserve of RAM that is not accessable to the user. While technically true, it is a moot point. On occasion this also means that 2 commands can be sent through the CPU and processed at once Plus, most programs used today are still only 32bit. Most web browsers, most media players, and most productivity software is 32bit; heck, even MS warns people away from using the 64bit version of MS Office.

About the only programs that are 64bit and require 64bit that I am aware of that “normal” people might use are Adobe Photoshop and Premere, outside of that it is largely only for extremely specialized software If you are running only 4GB of RAM then a lot of that ram is going to be addressed by the system, but left empty. You may gain a little bit of processing speed by going to 64bit, but if you use all 4GB of RAM which is not hard to do these days , then you are far more likely to run into vRAM which will significantly slow down your system.

Your system is very likely to run faster, smoother, and more consistantly than with a 64bit one True that, If your running a x32 system, with ONLY 4gb of memory, there is very little advanage of upgrading to x Make sure people look over their hardware, I have a old scanner works fine in x32, but, no x64 support, so I have to run a x32 VM on my x64 machine just to use my scanner You should add an advantage of x64 – fully functional Address Space Layout Randomization.

Many security flaws are based on known-location of code in memory, meaning a malicious piece of software can find it in RAM and take advantage of a vulnerability in whatever code is at that location. ASLR mitigates this by randomizing where in memory a particular binary blob dll, etc is actually located. This means that a quick scan of memory could find the affected memory area and trigger an exploit package to work correctly even if ASLA is enabled. ASLR is basically useless on x86, but works well on x Could you tell me, is it under circumstances necessary to switch to another BIOS version?

In such cases, because a bit operating system can handle large amounts of memory more efficiently than a bit operating system, a bit system can be more responsive when running several programs at the same time and switching between them frequently.

To run a bit version of Windows, your computer must have a bit-capable processor. To find out if your processor is bit-capable, do the following.

Select the Start button , and then select Control Panel. In the search box, type Performance Information and Tools , and then, in the list of results, select Performance Information and Tools. In the System section, you can see what type of operating system you’re currently running under System type , and whether or not you can run a bit version of Windows under bit capable.

If your computer is already running a bit version of Windows, you won’t see the bit capable listing. Find out how to choose between the bit or bit version of Office. Windows 10 Windows 8. How do I upgrade from the bit to the bit version of Windows? How can I tell if my computer is running a bit or a bit version of Windows?
