64-bit Windows Vista is faster than 32-bit Vista
But the upgrade options table on the following website seems to indicate that one could do an in-place upgrade from XP Pro 32-bit to either version of Vista Ultimate, while one would have to do a "clean install" to get from XP Pro 64-bit to either version of Vista Ultimate.

64-bit and 32-bit Version of Vista on one PC.
... but most of them have wound up recommending (and presumably use themselves) W32. I have this vision of them deciding to use the slower W32 version on their quad-core, water-cooled overclocked system with 4G of RAM and SLI NVidia 8800 cards because they won't be able to play Doom2 with the 64 bit version...

Upgrade from Vista Ultimate (32 bit version) to 64 bit version?
The amount varies with the version of 64-bit Vista. It's 8GB with Home Basic, 16GB in Home Premium, and 128GB in the other versions. i had so far tested 8GB on This is for use with 64 bit OSs only, and the results with a 32 bit OS are unpredictable.

I challenge you to tell me any OEM that offers any of their customers a 64 bit upgrade from Vista Ultimate 32 bit. Gateway doesn't. In another forum, someone else was saying Dell wasn't either. If 2 of the major OEMs doesn't offer, then I highly doubt any of the OEMs offer this upgrade path.

Upgrade from Vista Ultimate (32 bit version) to 64 bit version
For most people, if they're going to move to Vista, the 32 bit version is the way to go. Vista performance with a 2GB 32-bit PC is just fine. There will be more driver and compatibilty problems with Vista 64. I think rather than a blanket statement " If you're going to move to Vista, do it with the 64 bit version

The rest of the RAM goes unused because there is no address space to map it too. vista 64-bit can have it all sizes of RAM - And that's not even close to correct.

Donationware by 12noon (Stefan Tucker)
As an afterthought I picked up a Windows Vista Ultimate upgrade (one of the major resellers is going out of business so I picked up the Signature Version of the Vista Ultimate Upgrade at a reasonable cost). I’d like to upgrade from the Vista Home Premium OEM 32 bit version to the 64 Bit Vista Ultimate version now
BITS Service missing on Vista 32
After all, Vista Ultimate software, alone, was coming out (and still does) with both 32/64 bit systems packaged together and sold separately from the pre-install version. XS11E, only you and Microsoft (collecting a royalty on the manufacturers' and vendors' double-take) seem so unaware of such deceptive
Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit to 64-bit
I bought a custom made computer online and i found out that they dont offer the 64 bit cd. The company i bough from told me i would have to buy the 64 bit cd seperately. This is a total waste of time, i think microsoft should have cd's for people like me where i'm stuck buying a new cd and wasting more money.

64-bit Windows Vista is faster than 32-bit Vista

If you install 4 gigabytes of memory with Windows XP or Vista 32-bit, only about 3 to 3.5 gigabytes will be usable. Windows XP 64-bit and Vista 64-bit support much more. I think up to 128 gigabytes.

The 64 bit version of IE7 won;t accept Flash Player. The 32 bit version which was included in 5728 (as well as the 64 bit) worked with Flash Player. Bother!
