Upgrade OEM

Hi Guys,

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to upgrade a 32-bit Vista Ultimate OEM to 64 bit Vista OEM?

I bought the 32 bit OEM over a year ago now and would like to have the 64bit or do I have to purchase a 64bit version?

cheers

Apparently the same License key will work with both 64-bit and 32-bit. But you need the correct disk. However, it needs a complete re-install.
Oh, and your sig is too big. Please read the FAQ. Maximum lines is 4.

Thanks PhillyDee,

Changed the SigRig.

I have no problem with formatting but... How can I get hold of a 64 bit disk. Can I exchange it with Microsoft?

Read the sticky. There's a link in there to get replacement media,
