Pentium 4 530 Capable of 64 bit?

I tried searching for this answer but I am not that tech savy... If it is not capable of 64 bit and I wanted to upgrade the processor, how do I find out what is compatible with my motherboard?

Hello,

If you have an Intel Desktop Board, you can look whether they are on the list below:

Identify your board firstly:

You can get the aa number and look for information on the internet.

Or you can check in the bios

Otherwise, use the intel motherboard identifier tool http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/CS-010687.htm Click Here

Then go to the specific motherboard website

Check for the supported/compatible processors.

You can get information of the CPU on the link below:

All the best,

Kind Regards,

Aryan.

The chip you have isn't capable.

You need to know your motherboard to see what's compatable.
