Windows 7 Upgrade 32 bit XP to 64 bit Windows 7

[kbouter]

If I want to use the 64 bit upgrade of Windows 7 on an XP 32 bit system, will the windows 7 refuse to go from 32 to 64 bit or will it install the 64 bit?

If it will not install the 64 bit win 7, is there anything I can do with this situation to make it work and install 64 bit Win 7?

Thanx

You have to backup your data to another drive, disk or usb .. then do a clean install where you boot to the win 7 64 bit disk in your dvd. It will format the drive and install when you use Custom.
