If you choose to buy your upgrade from a MOR (Merchant of record) i.e a online webshop you have the choice to choose 32 or 64 bit. Both are not included on the same DVD.

Does this applies to the Ultimate edition as well?

Yes, it does.

Only ultimate gets both versions in the box. For all others you have to order the 64bit disc from ms.

Just for anyones knowledge had a dual boot wanted to remove the dual boot drive so I did, quess what computer cannot fine OS tried everything no boot, had to do a reinstall of Vista Business no problem went right through no call to MS and have single Vista boot know and all is well. The failijng 40 gig would not even let me write zero to it with WD software it had so many bad sectors well it booting from an 80gigSATA drive which is C: drive once agin, have to get used to that been anything but C: drive every since the first beta when I started testing for MS back in Nov I think it was well evry one have a god day. I found my other system this morning in a beepiing mod ethought it was the battery backup ,but no such liuck it is in a loop of black screen and restart every minuter or so think its bad ram. Every one have a nice day.

Does anyone know if the Vista Home Premium Academic Upgrade includes the 64 bit version?

Been awhile since I've been here but I thought I'd confirm this question for those who still don't know. I just bought the Home Premium Academic Version and it does not come with both 32-bit and 64-bit versions on the same disc. It only comes with the 32-bit version which also has a slip letting the user know the site if he or she is interested in the 64-bit version.
