Quick Vista Question

If I buy this:

And later on I upgrade to a 64-bit CPU, will I have to buy 64-bit Vista for Vista to use 64-bit?

Or if I buy 64-bit Vista now and install it on my 32-bit CPU will it work?

Because according to this:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16832116204

In the specs tab, you can run Vista Home Premium 64-bit on an X86 (32 bit) or X64 (64 bit CPU).

I dont mind the OEM version because I plan to keep my computer till around 2009 when the new version of Windows OS is due to come out anyways.

 

buy or upgrade - yes

sure, but the minute u activate whatever version u want, it is gone

cheers ...

 

What if install Vista 64-bit with my 32-bit CPU?

And later on when I have the money upgrade to a 64-bit CPU?

 

u can install a 32bits os on 64bits-ready machine but i do not think u can install a 64bits os on a x86 machine - i might be wrong

cheers ...
