    Hi I have vista 32 bit installed atm but want to get windows 7 64 bit.

    Can I use the upgrade package to do this?

    No, you can't upgrade a 32-bit OS directly to 64-bit, you'll need to make a clean install, which, as far as I'm aware, is quite possible using the 64-bit upgrade disc.

    Hi satrow, would you please provide a link on how to do a clean install, 32 or 64 bit, with an upgrade disc? Thanks.
