  • Full system over upgrade?

    Hey, I have just got my copy of the Windows 7 Upgrade disc. I'm upgrading from XP 32-bit, and every time I attempt to upgrade I get an 0xC0000005 error, as I have previously posted on the Windows 7 forums.

  • Is This Normal? 64bit Box = 32bit DVD?

    I bought an OEM copy of Vista Home P. 64-bit and when I opened it, the DVD says ''This disc contains 32-bit software only''. I thought it was a typo or something and proceeded to install, only to find out everything is in 32-bit... Am I supposed to use Alt. Media on this 32-bit key or is the 64-bit installation 'hidden' on this DVD?Thanks for ...
