probably the key contact have worn out with age.. that might be the reason why some of the keys need to be pressed hard to get a response.. if urs is a very old keyboard, it best to replace it

Re: Computer queries - 17-04-2006, 11:00 AM

I downloaded Ceaser III, a strategy game, byt unfortunately its in Italian. Is there any way to change the language of the game. There seems to be no possible way of doing it the normal way. Can it be achieved by downloading some additional files from the net?

a 32-bit OS is what windows currently is.. it is made to work on the 32-bit processors which can process 32-bits of data per clock cycle. the FSB speeds are limited to 800 Mhz.

a 64-bit OS are the new generation OS (there is one for windows too) which are custom made for the 64-bit processors. they are optimised to make full use of the extra bandwidth and processing power available with the 64-bit processors and hence are faster in execution..

i dunno more technical details. someone plz correct if i am wrong

A 64 bit OS has a word size of 8 bytes against 4 bytes in 32 bit OS. What it means is that the processor can access 2^64 bytes of RAM against 2^32 bytes (4GB), process data like digital video faster and coveniently map large files to memory.
