I have been setting up my Windows VISTA deployment system. I have run into a
problem. When I deploy Vista through the network using WDS, I don't see any
of the 64-bit images that I have created. This is a 64-bit computer. My fear
is that the PE that is being generated from the BDD Workbench is only a
32-bit version. According to the BDD documentation I can deploy both the
64-bit version and the 32-bit version from this 32-bit version of BDD but
that doesn't seem to be the case.

How can I correct this?

Looks like I found that elusive checkbox for enabling the 64-bit support for
PE by right-clicking on the Deployment Point in desktop workbench. The option
is at the bottom of the general tab referring to enabling the x64 platform.
