    My notebook has 32-bit Vista Home Premium. How can I get the 64-bit version?

    I have a Vista Ultimate Retail which I'll use if I have to, but I'm fine with Premium if I can just get it 64-bit instead of 32. What's the most cost effective route to take. Will lenovo ship me a 64-bit install disk? With the Anytime Upgrade disk work?

    Why do you want 64-bit?

    Go to Microsoft and ask for a x64 installer disk. It doesn't matter which version's disk you get 'cause they are all the same. Just put you key in from the label when you install.
