    Windows 7 32 bit to 64 bit

    Hi all,

    I just installed Win 7 ultimate 32 bit but I need 64 bit. I already inserted the dvd again and pressed Upgrade, but my system stays 32 bit. Its 64 bit compatible. Do I need to buy a new dvd with the 64 version or is there another way to upgrade my system?

    Just download a 64 bit install dvd and install it with the 32-bit serial. Works fine.


    In case you are retarded: install 32 bit again. It will increase your 32 bit install to 64 bit. Dont install it again, cause your pc cant handle 96 bit.

    In Ultimate it only takes a few clicks in the Windows Update to download and change the whole system language.

    I've found that installing it natively is nicer, even if only for the gained space
