can't do clean install from Vista 32 to Windows 7 64
Firstly I apologise if this has already come up on the forums but I've searched and can't find a solution.
I had Vista 32 bit installed on my pc and bought a Windows 7 upgrade disc as I wanted to do a clean install to Windows 7 64 bit. I put the 64 bit disc in and rebooted and the installation got as far as "completing installation" before a BSOD and I couldn't get any further. I tried this many times with no luck. I even reinstalled Vista and started again with no luck. I tried doing an upgrade to Windows 7 32 bit from within Vista out of curiosity and this works fine.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to why it won't let me clean install over Vista 32 to Windows 7 64?
