32 bit or 64 bit?

How do i find out if my processor is 32 bit or 64 bit?  I am running xp pro and my processor is a Xeon 2.66.

As far as I am aware the only commercially available 64 Bit processors are the AMD Athlon XP 64 and the Intel Itanium. I am also 99.999% sure that there is not a 64 Bit Xeon. I wouldn't be too concerned as untill Windows XP 64Bit Edition comes out no one with a 64Bit processors can use it to it's full potential. :-(

Thanks for that.  I have been told that I cannot burn over 2gb of data to a dvd without a 64 bit processor.  I thought they were talking pants and you have now confirmed that.   Thanks again.

Be happy with your Xeon: it has hyper-threading so acts like two processors: not bad!

I bought a Freecom Classic dvd writer at the weekend and I'm writing out 4.5 gig dvd-rw's on a two year old Tosh Portege. They're definitely talking pants.

Thanks all.
