Re: Vista Ultimate 64bit upgrade over Vista Ultimate 32bit???

You need to check with your computer manufacturer to see if 64-bit Windows
is supported on your model (ie, drivers) - if it's not then you would be ill
advised to install the 64-bit version. You also should check to see how to
either create or obtain a restore disc set so you can reinstall Windows
should it ever become necessary.
