The cd key is off the bottom of a laptop, one I'm not using anymore... The laptop I am currently using has vista 32 bit on it, and yes there is a restore but as I am sure you are aware, vista sucks... Since the windows 7 came on the other laptop, I didn't get a cd with it.... so I am trying to figure out how to either get a disc or download a copy, since I have the key I figure it should not be a problem. So I have come to find out that since I am trying to go from 32 to 64 bit, I need to do a custom install/upgrade, according to Microsoft... how do I download a copy that I can do this with, or how do I get the full disk set?
