Is Vista 32bit and 64bit on the same DVD or seperate versions? Hi Anyone know if this copy of Vista comes with both 32bit and 64bit versions or will we need to buy 32bit and 64bit versions separately?

It's true that both versions are supposed to be available on the same disc. Supposedly it should ask you on the first screen whether you want to install the 64bit or 32bit version after it checks to see if you have a 64bit processor. Otherwise it just gives the option for 32bit installation.

Hi,I still have the packaging and it lists Windows Vista as a supported OS, it also lists Windows 7 (no mention of 32 or 64 bit) but I can confirm it works well with Windows 7 64-bit.Hope this helps you in taking the plunge.Listiel W.

No. You will need a 64 bit version with the proper DVD. Note the retail version shipped with 2 DVD's... one for each verdion.

what is the 64 bit version?...all i know, is that i use this little beast all the time in a program (vst) called Fruity Loops Studio 10 on a netbook that's running Windows 7 starter (worse possible version of win7) and it operates just fine.

Mine came with 64bit, but was advertised that way. It came with the discs for both versions.

I held off a long time for the same reason. Rest assured, Vista 64 compatibility was added with the the Power Pack 1 (think SP 1) which also corrected the data corruption problem and added other features. Note, it is a pain as you have to first install from a 32-bit operating system before you can install under Vista 64-bit. In other words, I had to connect my girlfriend's laptop with Vista 32 and start the install before I could ultimately connect my Vista 64 desktop to the EX470. It does work though and I love this product. I'm backing-up automatically, set up a photo share for my friends to access, can trade files with friends and serve all my music / video files to my Xbox 360s over powerline ethernet adapters. I recommend upgrading memory from 512mb to 2gb (HP has lifted warranty restriction against this).

It includes both 32bit and 64bit - two DVDs and product key. But it is upgrade only - if you currently have 32bit XP or Win7, you cannot change to 64bit.

Seagate's website claims all the "Go" series products are compatible with 64-bit Vista: http://seagate.custkb.com/seagate/crm/selfservice/search.jsp?DocId=196031. It specifically lists Vista Home premium there, and you can find a download for the 64-bit software on their website, too. They put in bold print that they "now" support 64-bit, so the earlier reviewer was probably right at the time he/she wrote the review.

I gifted this laptop to my son so I don't have a great many answers ... however, I am certain that I read '64 bit' on the Toshiba website. Sure, I found the PC at Amazon, but then I went to the manufacturers website to check the nitty-gritties. I don't think I would have purchased a 32 bit ...

Processor can handle both 32bits and 64bits, if you are asking about windows? It comes with 64bits version.

it's both - if I remember correctly it will try to figure out what version to use - defaulting to 32-bit, even if you have a x64 OS. Obviously will not install x64 version if you are running 32-bit OS. I'm going from memory and I use a lot of versions (eOpen, H&B (box/license only), OEM, both 32 & 64 bit)

Each version of Windows 7 comes with BOTH the 32 and 64-bit discs. They're on seperate discs but your product key is interchangable (you cannot instal 1 machine with 32-bit and 1 with 64-bit however). I just got my copy of 7 Professional through the MSDNAA and I have to tell you: BEST OS from Microsoft yet!

A 64 bit windows install is the norm today compared with 32 bit installations. I don't remember reading anything that would lead me to believe that there would be any problem. My advice, go for it. This board is inexpensive and has worked for me without a hitch. Peace.

If it says "Full Version" it contains two DVDs, 32-bit and 64-bit, with one license key. You can install once: 32-bit on a 32-bit machine OR 32 or 64-bit on a 64-bit machine.
