QQ on vista OEM licence, don't think it has being asked before.

Just wondering if I buy Vista 64bit OEM could I install vista 32bit OEM using my purchased OEM licence?

Also could I also install the 64bit OEM over the 32bit OEM at a later date providing my hardware does not change?

I know you can do this with retail but would my OEM licence be instact?

Cheers.

I'll just elaborate on the reply. Your licenced for a particular version of OEM software and therefore can't swap and change between 32 and 64 bit software. The product key wouldn't work.
