Windows has two different System Types, 32-Bit and 64-Bit. The information that shows which System Type you have can be found very easily. 

Windows 7 Systems 

Click Start Button

In the Search Window, Type: System

In the search results under where it says Control Panel, click "System" to view your System Type

For the line item: System Properties, your System Type will display either 64-Bit Operating System or 32-Bit Operating System.

If you have a 32-Bit Operating System, you'll need to install the 32-Bit installer for Studio One. This file is labeled, PreSonus Studio One 3 Installer.exe

If you have a 64-Bit Operating System, you'll need to install the 64-Bit installer for Studio One. This file is labeled, PreSonus Studio One 3 Installer (x64).exe. 

Once you have Studio One 3 Installed, go ahead and launch Studio One 3

Please follow this tutorial on how to activate your installation.
