Hey guys! Smile

Is it possible to upgrade my Vista x86 installation into x64? I don't want to reinstall everything all over, and I didn't keep the ISOs of many of the games I have installed, so it would be a big problem for me to start fresh... I need this because I currently have only 2GB RAM and want to buy 4GB more tomorrow.

If not, what application could I use to back up my registry settings from the current x86 installation and restore them in the new x64 installation?

Thanks in advance!

Nope, fresh install only. Upgrade can't be done.

Yep, just installed x64 version. What I'm going to do now is just import registry entries of the games. Smile
