Hello,
i have windows 7 home 32 bit installed but want to install the same BUT..64 bit,where can i download a 64 bit copy from,and will my legitimate 32 bit key work for 64 bit?

thanks

 
well, it depends on which version of the Windows 7 license it is, if its retail (or through MSDNAA) the keys are interchangeable between 32 and 64bits, if its OEM or System's Builder, then probably not

downloading the iso, do you know anybody with the disc you could borrow to install with

Your 32-bit product key will activate a 64-bit installation however please note that a clean installation will be required as you cannot "upgrade from a 32-bit OS to 64-bit."
