Have 32bit OEM Vista Home Premium - Need 64bit

Sven, I'm not completly sure of this, but doesn't Microsoft allow you to upgrade your Vista for a fee?...(i.e. thru Download)?. I think I saw this somewhere within Vista. Hope this helps

Flintlock28: Yes - you are correct - however this applies only to retail versions. I have the OEM version, which is the same thing but sold at a discount to people who build their own systems. Microsoft also does not offer tech support on OEM versions.

Huh, I also put together my own system (with the help of a friend/co-worker)....and I think mine is OEM also. I got the hardware and software from newegg, and I believe I have full support....I'll have to look into it.

Go to New Egg and read the disclaimers for OEM.
