is there anyway I can get a replacement disc ultimate 32-bit windows vista
I spent $ 400 on this disc in windows vista ultimate and the 32 bit disc, I got damaged and I still have the 64-bit, but it won't work in my computer desk top of page I part # and everything but I can't seem to find someone to give me a replacement microsoft drive said they do more and its impossible is it true?
Lasr first question:
> microsoft has stated that they do more and its impossible is true?
Yes, Microsoft is manufacturing and sale of Windows 7. No more Vista.
RE: 64-bit disc.
> I spent $ 400 on this disc in windows vista ultimate and the 32 bit disc, I got damaged and I still have the 64-bit.
At least that I was wrong all this time, I don't see why you can't install your Ultimate 64-bit.
You must do a clean install, because you install a 64-bit on a 32-bit computer.
Your product key, however, is the same as your 32-bit.
Here is the tutorial to own a full version of Vista installation:

To make sure that I gave you bad advice, I would say that repost you the Forum installation, upgrade, and Actiivate:

Hi Pat. You need to change your password of e-mail of course but not in front of you, either remove malware from your computer or format and install Vista. Exactly what the problems are, other than your email, you encounter? What do you mean also 'filled my c/hard disk 233 GB'? Please give as much detail as possible.

If you never received a recovery to buying disk, then a recovery Partition (which uses F8).
Del's tips on how to use it
Using the Dell recovery Partition;
If that is damaged, order a recovery disc.
It's the use of Dell recovery disk:
Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.
If this happens, you may need to try this instead:
You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.
Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.
And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs
Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:
"How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '
http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html
And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.
And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.
