    Anyone know if i can "upgrade" 64bit Vista Home Premium to 32bit Business with an upgrade disk or does it have to be a clean install to go from 64 to 32 bit?

    Hmmm? I would hold out for an answer with something to back it up or a voice you know and trust, but that being said, i think it will have to be a clean install.


    *looking for info to back up my hunch*

    :) Q

    edit: thinking about it, even if i could just upgrade i would do clean install in this scenario anyway, tis asking for trouble methinks!

    Clean install anytime switching between X86 and X64, no choice.
