Help Me Understand 32bit And 64bit System by EGBEDA101: 11:52am On Dec 25, 2021
Hello Tech gurus!

There's this software I want to download to enable me run analysis for my thesis.

In the process of doing so, I was made to understand that my Laptop is not compatible since it's a 32 bit system while the software requires a 64 bit system.

For this reason, I am thinking of getting another system soon but don't want to make a mistake as I have little knowledge in that regard.

My current laptop is HP Compaq.

My question is:

How do I know a 64 bit system?
What could be responsible for my current system being so slow?


Thanks gurus as I await your response.

Reinstall the operating system. This time, select 62 bit during installation. It's a just a memory language.

Thanks bro.
But if by default the system type reads 32-bit operating system, will this method work?

All laptops supports 64bit architecture, except very old outdated laptops and some mini laptops, could even be recent

Upgrading your laptop to 64bit architecture is not enough.
Check for other requirements for the thesis software in question like ram size, processor type and speed, vram etc.
Cheers!
