Hey, I have recently upgraded my ram and am looking at getting windows 7 64 bit to take advantage of it. The problem is that I am currently using windows vista 3 bit home premium and when I try to install windows 7 from the Windows 7 7100 download file I get the following error:
"This version of the file is not compatible with the Windows it is being executed on. According to your computer's system properties determine which version of the software you need x86(32bit) or x64(64bit) then contact the software developer."
From what I have been able to find figure out I need to do a clean install or a dual boot. I’m not sure which one I have to do in order to install windows 7 or how to even go about doing either one. Could anyone point me to a guide to walk me through the steps of getting windows 7 working on my system?
