Vista Upgrade Disk

Howdy all, probably a daft question but I'm looking into buying a Vista upgrade DVD to upgrade an XP machine to Vista and am wondering if the upgrade discs contain both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the operating system?

No, the only one which is does is Vista Ultimate. You can get the media by sending off though and it costs.

Right, thanks. Guess I'll just go OEM then.

Go upgrade, it's only about £7 to get the disc from MS and I'm pretty sure you can download it once you've paid your £7.

It's a retail license so is much better value than oem and you don't have to have xp installed you just need the serial.

I have no idea why so many have got oem.
