Alright, as I recall from my own upgrade earlier in the year, you shouldn't need to purchase a new copy of window 7 professional just to go from 32-bit to 64-bit. Your code should work for either one (assuming you still have it). The code isn't locked to a certain type of system in that way. So all you need is a copy of windows 7 64-bit to install. Which you can get (completely legally - this is a direct download from digital river, a microsoft distributor) here.

If you want to try and get that part done, so you can install more RAM. Just remember that it's going to involve some work on your (or your geek friend's) part, since you have to do a clean install.

You may find your computer runs a lot better simply from the clean install, by the way. It's amazing the amount of bullshit you can collect over the years that bloats your PC.
