32bit Or 64bit - Can It Be Determined By Looking At Files On Setup DVD?
Feb 23, 2011
I have a copy of a Windows 7 setup disk here. Is there a way to determine whether it is 32-bit or 64-bit by examining some of the files on the setup disk? If so, how?

I've installed 64bit version of windows 7 for first time ever,and I see that I have 2 Program Files folders in C partition(beside Program files in D partition ),Program Files 32bit&Program Files 64bit.
Is that normal,or maybe I have messed up something when I was making another partition.
And another question,if that is alright,then I'm suposed to install 32bit programs in Program Files 32bit folder,and 64bit programs in other folder,or Windows 7 do it by default?

I am about to receive a new 64 bit computer soon i want to transfer some setup files I prepared for the new computer but i want to make sure that it will work..
i am downloading these files (video driver setups, game setups, etc.) on my old 32 bit computer and putting them on a flash drive and then use the flash drive to transfer it to the new computer so my question is, will this work?
some examples I am transferring are the AMD catalyst control software drivers, anti-malware setup, and the Vindictus game setup

Just thought I'd back up my data files one fine day. Used Windows easy transfer and transferred the files, intending to transfer them back after come comp maintenance.The next day the bloody computer crashed.Fortunately I had transferred the files to my transcend ext HDD. I tried to transfer the files from the Ext HDD to my laptop, and get the message - "Can't tx files from a 64-bit comp to a 32-bit comp."

I have various educational CDs that work on the older 32bit Windows OS, from Win95 - Win2000.
However, they do not run on the 64bit Windows OS I now have. Is there any way to make these CDs work on my new 64bit Windows OS?

My computer has 32bit windows 7 because my cpu couldn't handle a 64bit at the time. I recently upgraded it so my comp can now handle a 64bit. I've tried reading up on this but can't figure out how to uninstall and reinstall. I don't mind if i lose all my info as long as i can have a 64bit os.

I have been running build 7260 for awhile on my Asus notebook (see system spec) and so far have not had too many issues with it. Since I have done several succesive upgrades: Vista Business > Windows 7 build 7227 > Windows 7 build 7260 I have noticed some bugs creeping in (apps and games are crashing periodically or not loading correctly, gaming performance could be better). I attribute this to the string of successive upgrades.
I am going to wipe the drive and do a clean install of either the 32 or 64 bit RTM build in the next few days as it becomes available. One of the main goals is to increase performance with both applications and games. I use this laptop for work doing web development and heavy photoshop and graphics intensive work. I typically have many applications open at once using quite allot of system resources.
For this project I am going to:
A: Add another 2gb of ram to bring the total from 3gb to 4gb, or
B: Add a fast 16gb sd card to the system for the ReadyBoost feature, probably using around 6 to 9gb for this feature
For me to add the extra gig of ram it becomes more necessary to install the 64 bit build. If I use the 16gb sd card for ReadBoost, I can probably stick with 32 bit. None of my apps are currently 64 bit anyhow so I am not sure 64bit is the way to go right now.
I would like to hear people's thoughts on this and what others experiences have been especially using ReadyBoost on systems with over 2gb of memory..

So I messed up my laptop, it was Win 7 home 64bit. I formatted it and do a clean install, but I can only install 32bit. When I try to install 64bit, I get "hardware problem and installation could not be complete" what's that?

is it possible to update Windows 7 32bit to 64bit without the clean installation? if so;
- how to do it?
- how reliable it is?
reason is because I already have a lot of applications installed and configured in my machine and it will be time consuming to re-do the process from scratch.

Recently, going back over my quasi-gaming rig, I found out that my processor (Intel Pentium Dual-Core E5200) is 64-bit, not 32. I've been running 32-bit Windows 7 ever since I got it. When I bought Windows 7, I did so off of the Microsoft store, so I always have the option to go back into my purchase history and download a new .iso of either the 32- or 64-bit release. I did so, and ran Microsoft's USB/DVD tool for Windows 7 to put it on a USB drive (I didn't have any DVD-R's on hand) and it all seemed to work perfectly fine. But when I try to boot from the USB drive, it goes from the "Windows is loading files" screen to the "Starting Windows" screen, then gives me an unexpected error and forces me to reboot. I already tried redownloading the .iso, in case it was a corrupt download.

installing windows 7.In my college I have access to a free download, but I did not know how to put it in a pen-drive. So he just installed his own version which is 32bit. I just need the home premium and having 32bit with 8gb ram doesn't make any sense. I downloaded my copy(home premium 64bit) but the computer doesn't let me install it. I've been reading and it seems that in order to install the 64bit I'll lose all my data(that doesn't matter 'cause I have none).
