    Hey there,

    I have this notebook:
    MSI Global U135

    I have decided to get the next OS, Windows 8.
    My question is, which version do I need; 64bit, 32bit, starter(if it exists), pro, normal and so on...

    Thanks for the HELP!

    :thumbsup:

    Pro supports 512GB of RAM and Bitlocker as well as other advanced system functions not related to your Netbook. Given your specifications with 2GB of RAM and CPU either version will work. My advice is to buy whichever version is cheapest. :hi2:
