Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug, and
the precise symptoms of the bug. If you can, give a recipe
starting from `emacs -Q':
After starting window Emacs with "emacs -q", when I evaluate (* 1024 1024 1024 1024), I get 0.
(* 1024 1024) works correctly, but repeating '1024' more than two times gives wrong value.
In GNU Emacs 24.2.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600)

A 32-bit build of Emacs cannot correctly do integer math beyond the
value of most-positive-fixnum, whose value is 536870911. This is a
fundamental limitation of Emacs Lisp, not a bug.
You can work around this bu using floating-point numbers:
(* 1024.0 1024.0 1024.0) => 1073741824.0
Closing.
