I have a 64 bit OS but my video games, flash players, everything is running on 32 bit. Why could this be?

programs only run in 64 bit if they're programmed to. True, it's proven that 64bit OS will run things a little better, but if you want the full benefit, it will have to be running a 64bit program.

P.S. Flash only runs in 64bit if you use it with a 64bit browser.
