Upgrade from x86 vista to x64 windows 7... Will my pc handle it??

[zHashFx]

My current pc is an old custom desktop designed for overclocking originally, I kind of lost interest in needing another pc for quite some time as it still runs smoove!

The components are ASUS p5k mobo, 2 x 1gb ddr2 corsair ram, 2.33mhz overclocked dual core intel processor, 256mb nvidia geforce 8800 series...

Im gonna try it out regardless but hopefully I will gain an answer before I finish wiping my hard drive!

Also, if you think I cannot upgrade to 64bit windows 7... Would upgrading the RAM to 2 x 2gb ddr2 make it possible?

Should I upgrade the ram anyways? Its pretty cheap now ey?

Not been in the overclocking loop for some time now!

Kind Regards,

zHashFx!

There is a utility you can get from the ms site that will determine if you can run it and which bit version you should use buddy

you will definitely need more ram! it's cheap as chips,

if you don't upgrade there's no point in going 64bit as it will only use upto 3.75Gb on 32 bit version anyway.

But I would definitely pickup some ram
