HI, i have 32-bit vista home premium OEM installed on my pc and i wanted to
know if i could use the same CD-key to install 64-bit Vista home premium, and
also could i download installation dvd for 64-bit vista or do i have to order
it from MS? thanks
 
Hi,

The Product Key will work in either 32 or 64 bit, but you need an OEM
version of the 64-bit media. This is not something you can obtain from
Microsoft as they do not support OEM licenses. You should obtain if from the
OEM supplier that you got the key from, or purchase a copy for your own use
if you cannot find a disk to copy.

Hello,

version. U can order the 64bit media from Microsoft, Windows Anytime Update
part of the site. I have a OEM Ultimate 32 bit and i ordered the 64bit media
and i installed it with my key, no problem.
