Going a little crazy here. Buying a new PC and need it fairly urgently since last one died. However this is the only English Windows 8 I can find here and it doesn't specify 32 bit or 64 bit.

Are all Windows 8 copies both? I don't want to buy a 32 bit by accident or something '

.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

I think that's both 32Bit and 64Bit. You can select what Architecture when you install it. Also, the price is much higher than this 64-Bit operating system.

Thats a Japanese DSP version, meaning I would not be able to convert it to English easily. While my spoken Japanese is decent, my reading is not quite at that point yet.

Thanks though - are you sure if I buy the one linked I will have options of both architectures?

Where are you located?

Japan.

Ok. I'll see what I can find. You never know. I'm guessing you're primarily an English speaker?

Starbird0 · Aug 22, 2014

Darkbreeze :

Yeah. Hence looking for an English version

I think that the one I linked is 64/32 - simply because it's the only one offered. Just want to make sure.

The one I gave you is 64-Bit, try to open that link again, then click the 64-Bit, there is a selection if you want to select it to 32-Bit or 64-Bit. Though I'm not sure if it has an english language, but as what I know, you can download an english language using the Windows License.

I looked it up in USA amazon, pulled the item number and went to the japan amazon and plugged it in. That is the exact version sold here for 32/64 bit full retail version.

Darkbreeze :

Awesome! So just to clarify, that windows is *both* 64bit and 32bit and will detect automatically when I install? Or will I need to do something in the bios?

To be honest, this is my first time installing windows since windows 98!

alz_solstice :

Thanks! But unfortunately afaik that is not available to DSP versions.

alz_solstice · Aug 22, 2014

When you install it, there is a selection if either you will install 32-Bit or 64-Bit OS before you proceed to the installation process. I think it's on the first part of the installation.
