    you'ld need to find out what cpu u have... bios will tell you, then gogle to see if its 32 bit or 64 bit.. or just stick 32bit windows on it..

              just stick windows 32 on it for now.. you have 4gb of ram, 32 bit will see it as 3.25gb , the missing 764mb wont be missed..

                      of couse theres a way of checking.. like i told you in my first post.. enter bios (turn on pc and press a button... usually delete or one of the f keys, it will tell you which on screen..) cpu info will be on there.. find it and report back

                          Start it up and press DEL or F1 or f2, whatever it is to go into the BIOS. There should be a 'general' screen in there informing you what processor, how much memory you have etc.

                              Need slightly more information than that. Do you know the model of the Gigabyte motherboard or the model of the CPU (should say in the BIOS)
