The Q6600 is a Core 2 Quad, so yeah, a 64-bit OS would work. You can't upgrade, though, you'll have to format and do a fresh install.

The Q6600 is a 64 bit processor. Just make sure there are 64 bit drivers for all your hardware before you upgrade.
Unfortunately you can't do an in-place upgrade of a 32 bit OS to a newer 64 bit one.

Damn, thats just stupid! 
I am running 2GB DDR2 now, would adding an extra 1GB (32Bit Limit) make a difference or would it not be noticable?
Thanks, Paul

Re: 64 bitz
that depends on the application. The more memory intensive the application is the more of an increase you'll see in performance. i.e. - mspaint vs. adobe premiere.
