OEM = Original Equipment from Manufacturer.

I got my whole rig from a company that built it with the parts that I asked for. So would OEM apply to that ? Also, it did come with a bunch of discs, I'll look for them.

If they built it with those parts why in hells name is it running 32bit?

[Perry]

whoever made a custom computer running on 32bit is a fucking retard.

Unless the custom rig had <4gb of ram. However any one that makes a computer with =>4gb is stupid and should NEVER be allowed near a computer.


You can install 64bit but you will half to reformat. I am actually doing the same thing next week so I can add another 3gb of ram.

Fuuuuck, that sounds like a hassle.

ultimately, swapping out to 64 bit will be worth the trouble, tons of software is optimized for it nowadays, especially video card drivers

Reformatting isnt difficult, you just lose everything on the HDD. Just back up everything thats important
