Window Setup

"Your Installation Media cannot be used to install Windows.

Your current version of Windows is 32-Bit and does not match the architecture of the 64-Bit installation media. Please insert the 32-Bit media and restart Windows Setup"

You're trying to install a 64 bit system from within a 32 bit system? Nope.

You'll need to do a fresh install of the OS. Make sure you back up your data as that will be necessary otherwise you'll lose data. Macrium Reflect Free or Rollback Rx are solid tools to consider. Either way, you'll need to have a backup just in case the installation botches itself.
