Another thought... it's possible (I personally haven't seen it but others I've talked to have) that one of your sticks wasn't properly seated in your motherboard. All you have to do is take your case off, unplug the power, ground yourself (or just be sure to keep one hand gripping your computer frame) and gently but firmly push on each one. If one snaps in, that was your problem.
Apparently after a time, with temperature fluxuations heating and cooling, they can work themselves out of their slot and sometimes you can't see it but you'll feel it and hear it when they snap in where they're supposed to be seated. Might want to give that a shot first before buying more RAM.

It should all be there on the first tab (System) in dxdiag.
Your 3rd line should tell you what your Operating System is, MKP. Should say either 32 bit or 64 bit, if not then something like what build of Vista you have.

It's good.
I looked at BM's link, it seems the issue with 64 bit systems not playing nicely with AVG are in Win7 applications, and since you're still using Vista you should be fine.
Be sure to stop using Internet Explorer, that baby is just a time bomb waiting to go off. All the little bastards the world over that write the nasty worms / trojans / viruses target IE users.
