Dumb question maybe. I am fishing for explanation of what I see as
slowness in my W7 64-bit. Since my drive is IDE, I am wondering if
it could be that IDE can't handle 64-bit processing and that I must go
to SATA.

Anyone?

Seems wildly unlikely. Have you run the built-in 'experience index' test?
If so, does it say that the hard disk is to blame for your problems? This
test isn't infallible or even very sophisticated but it might get you
moving in the right direction.
