Upgrading from Vista (32 bit) to Win 7 (64 bit)
I have purchased the upgrade designed for Windows Vista to move my daughter's computer to Windows 7.
It has Vista Home Premium SP2 on it now. It has a lot of junk, and all she wants is the pics and videos, which I've backed up. Would it be better to make a clean re-install of Vista with the original Dell disks, and then upgrade to Win 7 (32 bit) followed by Win7 (64bit)? Can it work that way?
Or, should I just clean up the installed Vista as best as possible and then upgrade. I took a 1gb RAM out and installed a 2gb RAM for a total of 4 already, in anticipation of the (64 bit) Win 7 OS.
So basically, I need to know the best way possible to go from 32bit WinVista to 64bit Win7 with a 7 upgrtade from Vista disc.
Thanks in advance.
