Yes, that should be it.

dont uprgrade it, theres still quite a few apps which dont have 64-bit versions, whereas all apps are 32bit designed.

i thought why not, i mean im only gaming and entertainment and such....and i see it that if i have the 4 gigs then there is less of a chance of slow downs during games

I am using Vista 64 bit, and everything has worked so far with no problems. Well except right after I added my extra 2GB of ram to it, it would not boot up, kept getting BSOD's. If you have that same problem take out the new sticks and download this. Ever sense I used that I have not had one problem.
