I currently have Windows XP 32-bit and I just want to know if I can jump way up to a 64-bit system.

Go to the microsoft website and search for their 'upgrade advisor'.
It's a little program you can download and run and it will tell you if your hardware is capable.

Good deal! Once you've run an X64 Windows 7 OS you'll never go back to the X86 setup again.

I'm marking this thread as solved.
