Did you buy a Vista machine and then install Windows 7? How did you get Windows 7 32 Bit?

Think I'd call Best Buy and see what can be done.

yeah its a Windows 7 machine.. one of the first options during the install was to choose between 32 and 64 bit

You're not in trouble. You can install the 64 bit version without reverting to Vista.

(The 32 bit install will qualify an upgrade version of Windows 7. You'll have to boot from the DVD and do a clean install.)

aww, bummer matttrox .... call the store where you purchased it, or the manufacturer

Chances are that your system has a restore partition that will let you do the entire process again, and make the right choice. No phone call should be needed. Boot the machine and look for "Recovery" options. You'll want to restore back to factory defaults.
