| [Vista] Install 64 bit over 32 bit without doing a clean install
Sorry everyone, didn't find anything useful on google or here. Plenty of stuff on 32 bit over 64 bit.
So can I install Vista 64 bit over my 32 bit version without having to reinstall everything from scratch? Or at the very least not have to wipe my hard drive clean?

I highly doubt it would allow you. Even if it did, I see a nightmare. 64-bit Vista separates alot of things by whether they are 32-bit or 64-bit programs - separate Program Files folders, etc. |

| Sigh. If I would have only known that RAM would have gotten super cheap in only a matter of months I never would have bought the 32 bit version in the first place.
I started doing some manual backups but I've got 300 gigs of stuff to sift through.
Guess I have my work cut out for me.
