| Newbie Rep Power: 6  |  Can I upgrade from Vista ultimate 32 bit to Vista Ultimate 64 bit? I currently have a system with a core 2 quad chip xq6700 intel that was installed with XP then upgraded to Vista Ultimate 32 bit and now I'd like to upgrade the whole system to 64 bit Vista ultimate. Is this doable, Will Windows Office 2007 still work? I'm ultimately wanting to install some video software editing program like Avid Media Center, should I try this or set up a dual boot system or what? Gypsy Nick |

| Newbie Rep Power: 6 | Re: Can I upgrade from Vista ultimate 32 bit to Vista Ultimate 64 bit? Thanks for the fast reply. If I do a clean install on a new disk, can I then install Office 2007 into the Windows 64 bit Vista? Gypsy Nick |
