you can only install the 64 bit version when you do a clean install, because your OEM key is only meant for the 64 bit.
fyi, the 64bit OS is referred to as x64, the 32bit OS is referred to as x86.
edit: i think you can install 32 bit too, but have to download new 32bit drivers. i stand corrected.

QUOTE(sclikzs @ Nov 12 2010, 03:41 PM) well as for me , i had call acer product support. they say that seal is for 7 days 1 to 1 change warranty ( if got problem with your unit can change 1 to 1 within 1 week). If you decided to add ram, and open the back cover. the 1 week 1 to 1 change warranty will void, and can only do normal warranty. which mean must wait for part when claiming. Added on November 12, 2010, 3:44 pmhealthy partition (recovery) for recovery. system reserved (for win 7) . I dunno what for but , when installing win 7, it will prompt that it will create the partition. Thanks bro that's a relieve. Hey I noticed a big acer timelinex signboard near the Sg besi toll and I must say I'm pretty proud of owning one
