64-Bit Computing

The following section applies only to Intel

®

Core™ 2 Duo Processor

equipped models.

64-bit processors are designed to take advantage of 32 and 64 bit
computing.

64-bit computing requires that the following hardware and software
requirements are met:

64-bit Operating System

64-bit CPU, Chipset and BIOS (Basic Input/Output System)

64-bit Device drivers

64-bit applications

Certain device drivers and/or applications may not be compatible with a
64-bit CPU and therefore may not function properly. A 32-bit version of the
operating system is preinstalled on your computer unless explicitly stated
that the operating system is 64-bit.

Core™ 2 Duo or Core™ Duo Processor.

Memory (Main System)

*2

Part of the main system memory may be used by the graphics system for
graphics performance and therefore reduce the amount of main system
memory available for other computing activities. The amount of main
system memory allocated to support graphics may vary depending on the
graphics system, applications utilized, system memory size and other
factors. For computer’s configured with 4 GB of system memory, the full
system memory space for computing activities will be considerably less and
will vary by model and system configuration.
