You've probably seen the choice between 32 Bit and 64 Bit, whether it's when installing Windows, or downloading software. But do you really know what the difference is? Does it really matter which you choose? 64 Bit is the latest technology, so it's almost always the best choice, but it is still important to know why.

Thanks for your time sir to tell use the difference between 32Bit and 64Bit, your time was appreciated.
The protection level on system level was possible to realize since 80286 processors. And they used it, dropped it at some extent for 80386 and reintroduced it on 80486 for Windows, while other systems did enforce system protection through processors. But keep in mid, it meant to protect only memory.
9:00 I've felt that problem myself, when editing photos. Sometimes, when I am working in large images, I hit the 4GB limit for 32bit applications, and cannot continue. That's pretty much the only time I have noticed a difference between 32bit and 64bit software.

Thanks man, the last part about the difference in 32 and 64 programs, answered my questions. I want to instal Slade 3 for doom and I don´t know what to choose.
Many thanks for the provisions of this interesting lesson to help people like me !
some disadvantage with 64 bit is that often when you have to edit the windows registry, you often have to change multiple keys/values. Whereas you don't in 32 bit
1:01 Actually, no. Intel had “PAE”, which let the OS handle several times 4GiB worth of physical RAM, even though individual processes could not address more than 4GiB of “virtual” memory.
ThioJoe I understood it. Thank you for the info.
Actually, they'll be a performance hit for low end users when upgrading to 64bit from 32bit. For example if you upgrade to 64bit but you kept using 2GB of RAM, the system will bog down a bit because 64bit operation will take double or more resources compared to 32bit.

Just an FYI, There were versions of windows 32 bit server that supported up to 2TB of ram. The 4GB limitations were only on the consumer versions.

In principle with PAE you could support up to 64 GB in 32 bit mode but Windows does not support it apart of some server versions. An individual program would still be limited to 4 GB but different programs could have their own 4 GB of physical memory. Some new programs require 64 bit like Photoshop Elements 2018.

32-bit Windows can also run some DOS programs, although DOSbox is generally better. Also, while it is nearly perfect, a lot of older 32-bit games have problems on 64-bit OS's if left unpatched (Sims 1 being one example). Also, the 16-bit problem as well as the DOS problem (assuming for whatever reason you don't need DOSbox) can be solved if you are running Windows 7 pro, as that allows you to download a free (and legal) version of a Windows XP VM. It can't do 3d acceleration, so it won't help any problems with 32-bit games (other 32-bit software may work though), but it will be able to run the same 16-bit and DOS software as 32-bit windows 7.
Keep it up Thio
Thanks, found the video useful.
Here is a question why does all Windows 10 operating software limit you to 8GB Ram when you can have more and how do you work around this to be able to use your installed amount? I’ve been using 64 bit OS since XP 64 and XP 64 Pro came out.
Very good explanation... thx...tj..:)
Thanks for such information
I’ve got a question to ask you Joe, if you have a 32-bit operating system and a 64-bit based processor, can you still upgrade to a 64-bit? I’d really appreciate it if you responded because I’ve been wondering this for a while.

Yes, depending on what you are using and what you are going to. If you are upgrading from win 7/8 32 bit to win10 64 bit, I believe it is doable. But not all OS's may support an upgrade of that nature.
Hi ThIo Joe, Thanks in advance for answering questions. I am trying to determine if their is anything I can do to get Open Broadcaster Software to continue to work in my Virtual box Win 10 with a Mac OS High Sierra host. I realize it's not a good idea to run a robust app like OBS in a virtual machine, but I was able to get it to start up and do a few things until the past two updates by OBS. Currently it seems that it gets to the first frame and it freezes even with a brand new install. At first my errors were that I might not have enough GPU power, but DXCPL fixed that. I maxed out my Mac ram so I could max out my Vbox ram if needed, so I'm not sure what to do. Here's my question: In the Win10 info it says I have a 64 bit machine, but if I install a 32 bit version of OBS should it at least work a little in the 64 bit machine? Also, I'm a bit confused at OBS's site. You click on the 32 bit installer and the 86 bit installer gets downloaded. Do they function the same? If you can set me in the right direction I would appreciate it. I am the definition of insanity where I read or hear something that I think will help and I try it. Too many times too admit it. LOL....Oh! I might add that in the past Vbox has guest additions that I was able to choose the best one for what I wanted to do, but currently it appears I have only one choice. That fixed my problem in the past. Thanks!
0:33 Actually, the distinction is not as clear-cut as that. It seems to be a combination of register size and address length, together with CPU bus width. For example, the old Motorola 68K family had 32-bit registers from the beginning. So by your criterion of solely considering register size, it would have been a 32-bit architecture. And even looking at address length, it used 32-bit addresses, even though early members of the family only looked at the bottom 24 (or even 20) bits of the address and ignored the rest. But these early members were considered “16-bit” processors. They lacked some instructions for manipulating full 32-bit integer operands, and also they only had a 16-bit memory bus. All these gaps were filled in later. And the design was such that these enhancements could be added with minimal impact on software compatibility. Unlike the long-drawn-out drama that was the transition from “Win16” to “Win32” in the Wintel world, for example.
Very good one.
Thumbs Up! Great Vid!
Very helpful.
great infos thanks
Thio I got one more question to answer. Do i really have to format my entire computer to make 64bit work i got a Windows 7 pc and done a upgrade on it I've seen the 64bit showed as it was the default operating system but all the stuff i used showed as 32bit
Good video!

i have 6 cpu in one network.... originally all of them are windows 10 32bit which all of them are also visible in one network. then one got infected with virus. I reformat it and install a windows 10 64bit Generation 2. the problem is the newly formatted computer does not appear on the network only the 5 CPU can see each other and share files and printers. Question is ... can they both exist in one network and share files and printers if most of them are 32bit and one is 64bit... will there be a problem for a 64bit with 32bit?

QUESTION: The 64-Bit version of Windows Media Player does not Rip CDs anymore. I tried the 32-Bit version of Windows Media Player, and it does successfully Rip CDs. I did a lot of research online and tried all the factors such as changing the "Target" in "Properties" and making sure "mp3" was at its "Best" setting, and making sure the "Media" features were turned on and making sure the "Default" output was the "Music" folder. Everything is fine - that is probably why the 32-Bit version of Windows Media Player works properly. But, why does the 64-Bit version of Windows Media Player simply "close" the moment I click the icon to rip the CD?

So today I received a notification from a game I play that my computer is capable of using a 64 bit Windows 8 version but when I bought this laptop it came with 32 bit Windows 7... It only has 2 GB of RAM and I think I will upgrade it to 4 GB this year but should I also uprgade my laptop to 64 bit Windows 8? Will it run any better or should I install a 64 bit OS only if I had like 8 or more GB of ram?
Nice Video ✌️
Most people probably have the 64-bit version of Windows 10 installed, but the 32-bit version of Microsoft Office. Mozilla Firefox is now automatically upgrading from 32 to 64 bit. I believe both Program File folders first showed up in Windows Vista. Eventually, Microsoft may be a going away from 32-bit software and so future Windows may only require 64 bit.
