gef4000 mx 0 Posted January 2, 2008 I was wandering if anyone knew a way around buying the retail version of windows vista 64 bit edition if i have already purchased the 32 bit oem edition? I've tried upgrading it to the 64 bit but, the microsoft support line says it has to be retail. So I'm thinking if they're not going to be fair about ima have to get sneaky! So any suggestions i'd greatly appreciate. Share this post Link to post
peterh 1 Posted January 4, 2008 Sorry, I do not know of any workarounds other than buying a new PC with the 64 bit version included ... Share this post Link to post
jmmijo 1 Posted January 4, 2008 I think the 64-bit version falls under a special category, meaning Ultimate(Retail) or OEM only. Share this post Link to post
Shadow64Bt 0 Posted January 22, 2008 32/64 bit keys are interchangeable. The disks are the only things different. A 32-bit Home Premium key, for example, will work with no problems (activation or otherwise) when used with a 64-bit installation. Just some food for thought. Share this post Link to post
