This type of processor can run a 32-bit OS, such as Windows NT or some versions of UNIX. You can also run a 16-bit or lesser OS, but performance is not optimal. Intel's 386DX, 486, Pentium, and Pentium II/III/4 are all 32-bit processors. So are AMD's 386, 486, Athlon, and Duron. 32-bit processors can address up to 4 GB of memory.
