Hey guys, I have Windows 7 32-bit running on my custom build PC. I feel I could get better power out of a 64-Bit OS the 32-Bit. Any way I could do this? If so please help, thanks.

nahh you gotta format and do a fresh install, but you can back up your files to a removeable or external hdd then copy some back over. But you cant do that with actual programs because they have an x86(32 bit) or an x64 (64bit) version. So if you do a fresh install of 64bit youd have to reinstall most programs. Not sure about all but it would be worth it if you've got 4 or more gb of ram
