HI,

It is very simple, Click on WIN+pausebreak for the properties of the system, If it is 32 bit nothing would be mentioned, and if it is 64 bit it would be mentioned as x64.

Other ways are ofcourse mentioned above,

Hi

You can check whether the kernel is 32 bit or 64 bit as follows:

Procedure:

1. Choose in the menu: System--> Status

2. See the "Platform-ID":

Platform--32 bit--64 bit

AIX--

---

320-----324

HP-UX-----272-----273

RM600-----322-----323

SUN SOLARIS-369-------370

DEC-Alpha-NIL-----288

Similarly for windows you can check it for 32 bit the value should be 560 otherwise 64 bit.

Depending upon your platform you can check the value so you will be able to find whether it is a 32-bit or 64-bit kernel.

You can check it by other methods also as specified by other users earlier.

Hi Kiran

In x64 bit windows there is a folder in C:/ called Program Files (x86).If normal program files folder is there that means its 32bit.

Other option is to check the kernal location in ur system \usr\sap\SID\SYS\exe\uc\<b>NTAMD64</b> this represents a x64bit machine.

Apart from this if you have java stack go to http://localhost:port/index.html----
