Some may give you as high as 3 but you will never be able to utilize the whole 4GB. So I'm only running 2GB of RAM (PSE6 recognizes about 1.8GB) and I've yet to have a problem!!!

I did not know this.
I just went and looked at my system (I'm on a Dell Studio 1537) and I have a 32 bit operating system with 4GB of Ram.
Is the 32 bit part upgradeable??
My computer has JUST started getting glitchy and I don't know why.
