how tell which version you re running

How to tell which version you're running

I've got Vista x86 and x64 ( I know your tired of hearing it) and wondering: how can I tell which version I'm running ? With system up - I check system - advanced settings etc and shows Vista , memory size etc . Desktop lower right shows Vista Build 5384 but NOT whether x86 or x64 version is installed.

Doesn't list it in "System Information," either, nor when you right-click on "Computer."

In the System information, right below memory, it says 64 bit Operating System....on mine at least.

If you click on the "More Details" in the Welcome Center, it states right below Memory in the "System" section either "32-bit Operating System" or 64-bit Operating System" on all 4 of my installations.

His description was slightly misleading. He meant System information, as in right-click on "Computer" and select "Properties" from the context menu, not "System Information," the "Control Panel" application. At least that's where I found it.

Mark,
I
thought I first tried to right-click on "My Computer" and select "Properties". That's where it's always been , but I didn't have System Info as a tab - My "leftmost" tab had Network info ( pc name, workgroup etc: the "Network ID" tab of Win2000 )

When I right-click on "Computer" in the Vista x64 "Start Menu" and choose "Properties" I get a nice, one window synopsis with a few hyperlink options in the upper-left side (also found at Start>Control Panel>System), not the old "six-tab" box. Are you using Classic?
