I've got a Pentium 4 machine - the exact architecture is GenuineIntel x86 family 15 model 2 stepping 7. (I'm running Windows XP Pro, version 2002, Service Pack 3 with no problem.) This is a 32-bit machine, right?

Yup 32 bit...and so not capable of running a 64bit OS... although it could be a simple CPU swap out would give you that feature...but you would need to know if your motherboard would support the processor type.
Doesn't have to cost much...Celeron D (Prescott core)for instance supports 64bit architechture.

my heart it feels a broken beat
Touched soul and hurt lay wounded deep
Brown eyes are lost afar and sleep
