32 has better driver compatibility but doesn't accept more than 4GB RAM, except if you hack the RAM using methods like boot and OS modding.
64 has better calculation, manages RAM efficiently and accepts more than 4GB RAM (Still depends on motherboard if it supports it) but you may have problems with some programs and drivers.

Thanks for the info Sir Ephemeral ...think for now I will stay with a 32 bit version..the programs that I use are older so fairly sure would not function with the 64 bit.
