"Cores per processor: 1
Processor Name: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 650   3.40GHz"

Not dual core.

"Hyper-Threading Technology: Yes"

It does have HT though which will speed it up.

"Expected System Bus Frequency: 800 MHz"

Which is good for a P4

This doesn't seem to be test of your hardware specs.  This only tested your processor.  It's a good, stable and reliable processor, however there are faster ones on the market if that's what you want.  So in order to give you a review about your system I would need all of your specs about your system.  However based on this your processor isn't a bad one.  But to tell you more about how it works with your system I will need the rest of your specs.

Maybe add another 512 of RAM and another 80gb HDD and you'll notice a difference.  Maybe also a little bigger video card, 256 maybe.   ;D  Other than that it's a good system.  The upgrades aren't critical, your system is ok as is.  What I've recommended are just where you could upgrade it.

Read here (http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/64bit/default.mspx) to learn more about Windows XP 64 bit edition.  You can read about the benefits there.

Can I USE WINXP64 OR NOT

The short answer is yes, you can. you have the new type of Pentium 4 processor that's capable of 64-bit processing.

Now, will you notice a huge difference with XP 64-bit? Maybe, maybe not. Depends on what you normally do with your computer.

Calm down.  This is the part I answered.  You have a processor capable of it so I pointed you to where you can read about it and see if it was something YOU wanted to upgrade to.  If you don't like my help then I don't have to give it.  There are plenty of other people that need help.  Have a great day.

 ;D
