Advice required for OEM use
My friend has an old but reliable laptop which he wants to dump the Vista and get a new hdd to run W7 hp 64. He has already bought an OEM (for use with a new pc) from a reputable source and I have had a close look at the DVD and it looks ok to me. His laptop maxes out at 2 gb of ram which is not much for 64 bit Windows, so if it struggles with W7 64, can he use the product key and one of the downloadable 32 bit ISO's to change to 32 bit? The DVD is Microsoft OEM, not Dell etc.
