    Here's my question: -.

    1. I bought a version of Windows Vista Edition retail family Premium, the package has only the 32-bit support (DVD). I found a few website say that the product key for the retail version of Windows is for 32-bit and 64-bit, as long as we use 32 - bit or 64 - bit on a single computer at a time. If I'm wrong, anyone could answer my question?

    2. now, I plan to move from 32 bit to 64 bit, my problem is that the version sold at retail of Windows that I purchased only contain 32-bit media:-

    (a) is there a way I could install the 64-bit Windows?

    (b) is it possible I could get 64-bit support?

    I have just ordered pre Windows 8 pro which is 32/64 bit. I am running Windows 7 home premium 32-bit and want to upgrad to windows 8 pro 64 bit.

    Do I need an another full OEM 64 bit version or upgrad version will do?  Thank you.

    Your documents and it will be in the Windows.old folder, but all programs that you have installed will be gone. Going from 32-bit to 64-bit is a clean install and all programs that you all will need to be reinstalled.

    It would be wise to save all documents, photos, music, and anything else that you do not want to lose before doing the installation.

  • How to make Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit to 64-bit version

    I've recently upgraded to a card mother Intel D975XBX2 and 965EE Intel processor.  My OS is Windows 7 Home Premium, 32-bit version.   I bought almost 2 years ago and it came with versions 32 and 64 bit.   I understand the Intel D975XBX2 motherboard and 965EE processor will run 64-bit Windows & software.

    Is there an advantage to 64-bit and what precautions should I take to go from 32 bit to 64?

    Usually, the determining factor is the amount of RAM you have. A 32-bit Windows 7 can use 4 GB RAM max, normally a little less (3.2 to 3.6 GB). A 64-bit Windows 7 can use more than 4 GB of RAM, Home Basic upward to 8 GB, Home Premium to professional, full and business edition up to 192 GB and 16 GB.

    If you have Let's say 6 GB or more RAM you will benefit when replacing 32-bit with 64-bit Windows. If you decide to do, the only way is to do a clean, fresh installation; You cannot change the bit version once installed.

    Note that you may not even start the 64-bit installation of Windows to a 32-bit Windows desktop. You need to boot your PC with the installation media 64-bit, DVD or USB memory in order to install the 64-bit Windows 7.
