The forum software seems to confirm you appear to be using a Windows 7 64 bit system with a 32 bit Firefox. Currently that is probably pretty much to be expected. But as you mention you have 16GB RAM it may well be beneficial to use the 64bit version, or even install both versions. See also

Can you sate what the exact error message is, when it occurs, and provide a screenshot of it. Is ti for instace amessage you get when trying to install the 64 bit version of Firefox ?

. ...John. I tried to add/attach a scrn shot of the error msg (2x) but your system wouldn't let me.. I'll try again, but just in case, here is the txt: ..(X) Sorry, FireFox can't be installed. The version of FireFox requires MicroSoft Windows 7 x64 or newer. Please click the OK button for additional information.. . IIIDaemon www.GasRecovery.net
