Win7 x64 build7100 ends up as Win7 x32 build7000
I've had no luck with this in Installation & Setup so I thought I'd try here.
I'm running an Abit I45-c MB (all documentation tells me it is 64-bit capable) with an Intel Pentium D 945 3.2GHz CPU (again 64-bit capable), with 4GB of Ram and during boot my Bios reports an "EM64T CPU".
I have downloaded the 64-bit Win7 RC image "7100.0.090421-1700_x64fre_client_en-us_retail_ultimate-grc1culxfrer_en_dvd.iso" twice and burned both versions to DVD. Both give the same results: Install reports that it is installing Build7000. After a successful install I end up with Build7000 (ver. 6.1) at 32-bit. How is that possible? My last attempt included the second downloaded image and partion destruction, partition recreation, and format, all to no avail.
