There are separate downloads from MSDN, one each for 32 bit and 64 bit. The
file name for the 32bit version is en_windows_vista_x86_dvd_X12-34293.iso.
At present the 64bit version has been pulled from MSDN as the servers could
not handle the download volume. At this time, I haven't heard a date that
the 64bit version will be made available on MSDN.
