I have an Intel Core 2 Duo Processor that clocks in at 2.10 Gigahertz and I am running Windows 7 Professional, i have 3 GB's of RAM, but i just ordered another two, so i will have 4GB, and i want an OS that will recognize all of my RAM. I wanted to know if my laptop will run Windows 7 Ultimate 64 Bit??

There are several flavors of core dual supporting different options as listed here. (http://www.intel.com/products/processor/core2duo/specifications.htm http://www.intel.com/products/processor/core2duo/specifications.htm)

However, I do not see a 2.10g version so it makes it difficult to be 100% certan

I would recommend CPUZ from CPUID as a quick check as what all options your CPU supports.http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/cpu-z.html http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/cpu-z.html

If it reports EM64T instructions, your good.
