Just ordered bits for a new system, but I ordered 32Bit vista instead of 64Bit, this is going to be a problem for me as the new machine will have 4GB of RAM.

I have a 64Bit Vista Ultimate Edition OEM DVD from my current system, is it possible to install the 64Bit version of Home Premium using that disc and the key from the 32Bit edition of Home Premium I bought with my new system?

Or do I need to see if OCUK will swap the discs/keys for me?
