Intel Q6600 2.4GHz

2x1024MB TeamGroup Xtreem Dark DDR2 800MHz

If it's a 64 bit processor you might install the 64 bit version.
But that is only useful if you have 4 GiB of Ram or more, and I gather you have only 2 GiB.

As the 32 bit version (still, I think, this might of course change sooner or later) has got more users, it's to be expected that more bugs are found (and patched) in the 32 bit version.

So ... :)
