Just a quick question here. Do Windows Upgrade licenses exist as a 32bit and a 64bit? Or one for all?

I know that. But do you have to buy a 32 bit Upgrade or a 64 bit Upgrade? Or is there only one license that ahs them both? I'm selling mine that I won on a livestream (back in the day it was a livestream) and buyer wants to know.

Looking at retailers, i believe that individual OEM copies are 32 or 64bit but upgrade copies include both.

whole post is an edit cuz i messed up =D

 

both and btw there is absolutely no point in installing 32bit i remember when my q6600 and this is the worst(at the bottom of the list/cheapest cpu) quad core that intel had when they first made them 5-6 years ago so if ur running something that cant run 64 bit its time for an upgrade 

 

i think 32bit should be cut off people should be forced on to new hardware just like forcing people out of xp even if its a great os

 

i know that info isnt what u needed but its putting it out there so people know

 

 

edit* to answer question

 

 

yes they are all in one 64 bit comes with 32 bit installations i think this started with windows 7

both and btw there is apsoltly no point in installing 32bit i remember when my q6600 came shipped with 32 bit windows vista and i was so pissed off that i got them to send me a new code for the 64 bit if im correct vista came with 32 bit keys and 64 bit keys

Thanks. I know, I wasn't sure if it isn't 32bit only. He is running Windows 7 HP 64bit and wants 64 bit.
