32 to 64 installation

Hi

I have a PC which came with Vista Home Premium 32 and I have an upgrade set
with both 32 and 64 Ultimate.

If I do a clean install of the 64 will I have a problem with activation, I
have already activated the 32 install but would format first.

Please let me know

regards

Daniel

Re: 32 to 64 installation

Yep, it should work fine. Like Rick says, if worst comes to worst
you'll just need to explain over the phone and get a new activation
number. I've done this a few times without a problem.
