have just upgrade my p from win xp to win 7 32bit and it cant see my hard drive. i want to use 32bit coz a lot off my software i use for recording use 32bit. 64bit can see the hard drive but will mean i have to change all my software of which that i can not d now. can u help
 
Most software is 32bit and almost all of it runs fine on 64bit windows. If you needed to run them on xp that would be different. you need to reinstall them.

What do you mean by "64bit can see them"? that doesn't make any sense as you said you installed windows 7 32 bit

Most, if not all your 32-bit programs will run in 64-bit windows 7. Win 7 has a great compatibility mode for older software.

Install your programs as usual and then right-click on the icon and run it in compatibility mode.

Hope this helps
