I am still running Windows XP on one of my machines. Is upgrading to the 32 bit version of Windows 7 (or 8 for that matter), the only way to make sure all of my old hardware, including external hardware, working?
Thanks in advance.

2GB ram works with win7 but if you bump it up to 4GB it will make a world of difference in the performance.... just saying..

She's kinky and when this situation arises we open the icebox and have a little whip-n-chill!

Oh I agree 100%. But at nearly $100.00 for Win7, that will have to wait a few. I just wanted to know if my present hardware will work with Win7 - 32bit, or can I go with the 64 bit.

You can go - put that on the back-burner....

64bit won't take up any more than 32
