64bit windows xp is currently in development for the amd64 processor. all current version of xp are 32bit, just like all the processors that run them.

if you are running xp pro or xp home you are running the 32 bit version.

Unless you have an Intel Itanium processor (and you would know if you had one), you are running the 32-bit version of Windows XP.

The current 64-bit version of Windows XP supports the Intel Itanium and Itanium2 processors only.

The 64-bit version of Windows XP for the Opteron/Athlon 64 has not been released.

Just out of curiosity, how much will the Opteron version cost when it comes out?
