Awesome, thanks alot guys! 
Edit: Would I just be able to upgrade it from a 64 bit disk? Probably not, eh? I'd lose everything in the process if I could, wouldnt I? | My System Specs |

You are migrating from a 32 bit OS to a 64 bit os so you will need to perform a clean installation. So back up those files before you begin. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Custom Build OS Windows 7 7600 1 X64 CPU AMD PHENOM II X 550 PROCESSOR 3.1 ghz Motherboard ASUS M4A78-TE Memory Corsair 4 gig ddr 3 Graphics Card ati radeon 3300 Sound Card ati hd Monitor(s) Displays syncmaster 2033sw Screen Resolution 1600X900 60 hz refresh PSU antec_550 watt Case cooler master GLite Cooling stock_heat sink Hard Drives twin_seagates SATA's 1 TB & 500 Gig, hitachi_slimline 160 gig Internet Speed 20mbs up/ 1.5mbs down Other Info favorite child "stewie"

I had it customized before I bought it. I usually build my own, from older computers, but this one, I'm probably going to switch alot of stuff around anyways, to make it more "Mine" | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Custom Built OS 64 bit Windows seven home premium CPU 2.7 GhZ AMD Athlon x2 x64 Motherboard Gigabyte M61PME-S2P Memory 4GB Graphics Card NVIDIA GeForce GT 220 1GB Sound Card Internal Realtek high quality Monitor(s) Displays 1 LCD ViewSonic Model VS10047 Screen Resolution 1280 x 1024 Keyboard Logitech wireless PS3 keyboard with trackpad Mouse DELL USB four button laser mouse PSU Blue Sonic 400W Peak Power Case Blue Sonic Cooling PSU, processor, graphics card, back panel, side panel.

Who was the manufacturer then?
You may be able to contact them,
But when you customized you should have been given to option for 64 bit. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number SMN-Productions OS Windows 7 x86/x64, Server 2008r2, Web Server 2008 CPU i7 v2 3930K Steping stone 2 Motherboard ASUS Rampage IV Extreme Memory G.SKILL Ripjaws Z Series 32GB Graphics Card AMD HD 5770 Monitor(s) Displays Acer 21" and Samsung 20" Keyboard Black Widow Ultimate PSU 1000 Watt Case HAF-X Cooling 4 Fans Hard Drives Patriot Pyro 80GB |

Yeah, well I might do that. But, I was wondering, I have the boot files for Windows 7 64 bit, but I only have 20 700MB CD-RWs, would I be able to use those somehow? Like, burn files to one, and others to another, and boot them sequencially? | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Custom Built OS 64 bit Windows seven home premium CPU 2.7 GhZ AMD Athlon x2 x64 Motherboard Gigabyte M61PME-S2P Memory 4GB Graphics Card NVIDIA GeForce GT 220 1GB Sound Card Internal Realtek high quality Monitor(s) Displays 1 LCD ViewSonic Model VS10047 Screen Resolution 1280 x 1024 Keyboard Logitech wireless PS3 keyboard with trackpad Mouse DELL USB four button laser mouse PSU Blue Sonic 400W Peak Power Case Blue Sonic Cooling PSU, processor, graphics card, back panel, side panel.

Back up your files, make a new partition for windows, and install into that. | My System Specs | | OS 7 x64 CPU AMD X2 245 @ 3.5 Motherboard Gigabyte MA 790FX Memory 4 gb OCZ Graphics Card Radeon 4550 1GB Monitor(s) Displays Dell 2407 Samsung 1701B Screen Resolution 1920 x 1200 1280 x 1024 PSU Antec 500 Hard Drives WD 500GB x2

To the best of my knowledge, that will not work, you have to use dvds.
If ms had intended for you to be able to do that they would have released a cd version on the install files.... | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number SMN-Productions OS Windows 7 x86/x64, Server 2008r2, Web Server 2008 CPU i7 v2 3930K Steping stone 2 Motherboard ASUS Rampage IV Extreme Memory G.SKILL Ripjaws Z Series 32GB Graphics Card AMD HD 5770 Monitor(s) Displays Acer 21" and Samsung 20" Keyboard Black Widow Ultimate PSU 1000 Watt Case HAF-X Cooling 4 Fans Hard Drives Patriot Pyro 80GB Mobo limitations removed? problems?
