| | Can I change from 32-bit to 64-bit Vista in my 64-bit machine? My 64-bit system came with Home Premium 32-bit installed. Don't I want to use a 64-bit Vista? How do I upgrade from 32- to 64-bit versions? (I also purchased Ultimate speparately -- would those disks be useful in making this transfer?) |

Until you have 64-bit applications to run (and there are very few yet), there is essentially no advantage. Quote: > How do I upgrade from 32- to 64-bit versions?
