    Hi everyone,

    I have a Sony Vaio shipped with Windows Vista Premium and bought the 25€ pack to upgrade to Windows 7. Unfortunately both are 32bits. As I've upgraded the memory of my laptop I want to install Windows 7 64b. I got a Win7 64b retail version and removed the ie.cfg that way I should be able to use my OEM key.
    The thing is: Is my Win7 32b key is going to activate on a Win7 64b?

    Thanks in advance,

    Thanks for your answer. It worked just fine without any other mod than ei.cfg. I'm now on windows x64 :)
