All,

problems have been solved, there was a setup error at the shop that built the PC

Let's just say it was a computer company in Edmonton. I won't give out the name because their sales and service through this issue has been great (fixed in about an hour)
 
I would send the company a reminder Vista retail has been on the shelves since January 2007. A lot of installation tutorials are available through Google. Even the sales people at Best Buy know when a 32 bit version is installed where a 64 bit version 'should be'. What do you think of the new Forum mascot? I hope that system of yous doesn't catch on fire with all this online activity. ;)
