how can you tell if you have SharePoint 2007 Enterprise version x64 or x86
You would think it would be easy but I have searched and googled a couple of hours and can't find the answer and I need to download updates

the OS is 32 bit on our SharePoint server, but all I can download for SP 2007 is x64 or x86

Good find it is tricky.
I don’t think you can have 64 bit MOSS on 32 bit OS. I am sure you have 32 bit MOSS Installed on you machine
on 64 bit machines you will see 'Microsoft Office Server ' folder in 'c:\program files' folder
if its 32 bit install it will be in c:\programefiles86 ' folder .
by the way ,this can be different if you change the folder at the time if install
Let us know !

Does your system meet the hardware requirements for 64-bit SharePoint?

Minimum requirements you have posted are right it says clearly all systems 64 bit that can be used to install MOSS 64 bit .

The folder in program files says microsoft office server. We definitely have SP server 2007 enterprise, but when you right click My Comptuer/properties, that is nothing that says either x64 or x86 and I notice on all our 32 bit servers that nothing is shown as 32 bit or anything else.
Same thing on our servers too. there must be some easy way to find out , i will post if i ever find .
one way is like i mentioned above on 64 bit OS you will have 2 program files folder
but on 32 bit OS you will find one .

on 2008 servers and win 7 it says System type and its 64 bit .
Ufarooq: are you saying there is a 32 bit download for SharePoint 2007 server? If so, where is it.
Nsyyoung: I got to Help contents and couldn't lodate system administration. We have XP loaded on this SharePoint server.
I was told our sharepoint server is x386 - so would that correspond to x86 download?
I found it in Help and support as nsyyoung pointed out, but it was listed differently. I never would have thought to look there. And our server is x86. Thanks

Glad you found it and glad I could help; I was looking at my own XP laptop when I typed that...

yes there is a 32 bit download available for MOSS and its updates as well .
infact Companioes who start using MOSS right after it released , they all use 32 biut version of sharpeoint on win 2003 server 32 bit .
in your case i am not sure , never sae this 386 , but i will try x86 downloads . I am sure you have 32 bit version of MOSS
it will also determine if you need 32 or 64 bit so . you can also see all type of updates after clicking on request updates , select show hot fixes for all platforms .
