| | upgrade my 32bits vista ultimate licence to 64bits? Hi today i got my vista ultimate 32bits VL (for stundents). is it possible to upgrade that license to 64bits? (i know i have to reinstall the computer anyway) and what do i say to the license-seller? as i have read on the internet both 32&64bits are on the same dvd and the only thing seperating them is the serial. Is that true in my case to? //KRS Sweden |

All the versions of Windows Vista are on each DVD, Home Basic, Home Premium, Business, Ultimate, Starter etc. -- Jupiter Jones [MVP] http://www3.telus.net/dandemar http://www.dts-l.org "KRS" <KRS@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:2D93CA36-7D8A-4150-8B64-0AE703CEF4A6@xxxxxx Quote: > Hi > today i got my vista ultimate 32bits VL (for stundents). > > is it possible to upgrade that license to 64bits? > (i know i have to reinstall the computer anyway) > > and what do i say to the license-seller? > > as i have read on the internet both 32&64bits are on the same dvd > and the > only thing seperating them is the serial. > Is that true in my case to? > > > //KRS > Sweden |

| | Re: upgrade my 32bits vista ultimate licence to 64bits? You would need to talk to the organization you got your volume license from to see if a replacement (not an upgrade because you cannot upgrade 32-bit Windows to 64-bit Windows anyway) is available. And as Jupe has indicated, 32-bit DVDs and 64-bit DVDs are entirely separate, the 64-bit version does not come on the 32-bit version and vice versa. -- Richard G.

| | Re: upgrade my 32bits vista ultimate licence to 64bits? Rethink going to 64 bit - remember 64 bit is "picky" - all drivers must be signed/cerified.
