I have just finished downloading 7057 64bit, and is thinking of installing it on one of my partitions currently running on 7048 32bit.
I am using 7057 32bit as my main OS (On a different partition.)

Could you brainiacs out there please give me some info on doing this?

I would like to have the following as an end result: triple boot option with 7057 32bit, 7057 64bit, and XP 32bit.

I am running XP on a seperate hard drive and 7057 and 7048 on the other hard drive.

How do I go from 7048 32bit to 7057 64bit?

Kind regards!!

You cannot upgrade from 32bit to 64bit. The only way is to do a clean install of the x64 on the 7048 partition.

You can't. You have to format and make a clean install of x64 version. Simple ;)
