Just a quick note that I just upgraded my laptop from Windows Vista 32 bit to Windows 7 64 bit and it made the computer a lot faster.

By going from 32 bit operating system, it allowed me to install additional memory. 32 bit systems only recognize 3GB RAM memory and 64 bit systems do not have a memory (DRAM or SODIMM) memory limit.

My computer was so slow before and now it really screams.
I did a fresh install (called custom on the installation disc) and then upgraded from 2GB memory to 4GB memory.

If you have any questions about the process, just reply below.

I thought I needed a new computer, yet this upgrade has given new life to my HP notebook and cost a lot less than buying a new computer.

I will be writing about it on my blog, yet wanted to share in case you were wondering if to go with windows 7. I say yes!
