   Running Vista64 SP1 on Thinkpad t61p high end 4gb / 160gb 7200rpm drive.  It runs very well so far.  We have machines purchased with the 32 bit windows, does the license for that work with the same release level of the 64 bit ie 32 bit business vs 64bit business ?  thanks :) and I found useful info here.  seems to say you can do this but want to verify

   Hi. After reading this, I'm hoping to get some true clarification. I have 32 bit Vista, and recently got a 64 bit machine. Called MS to get 64 bit cds shipped to me (cost 10 bucks). One guy told me that YES I can use the 32 bit key to install the 64, another told me no, and that NO key is included with the CD they will send, and the last person told me that I will get a key, and that the 32 bit key won't work with 64 bit.

   So.. I've read so many different theories, can anyone who's actually DONE this confirm if the 32 bit key worked to install the 64 bit version?

   Thanks!

   Hi, I'm really confused.  I have Vista 64 bit and it refuses to run many programs so i want to replace it with Vista 32.  I know I need to do a clean install, but can I buy the upgrade or do I have to purchase the full version?

   Also, I have 4gigs of memory, becuase the 64 bit is causign so much trouble with not running programs, I can live with it not recognizing some of the memory, but will it make any huge difference that I don't know about?  Thanks so much for any advice!!!
