alright can do, what about 64 or 32 bit OS?

I'ld stick with 32 bit, as it is sometimes hard to find the 64-bit software.

wrong. you have 4gb of ram. get 64 bit otherwise only around 3gb will be used. ive been using 64 bit operating systems for over 2 years and have only found 1 program that didn't work, and that program is simcity 2000, made in 1993.
