I have 32-bit Vista Home Basic, and will be upgrading to 7 Home Premium. Any reason to switch to 64-bit? My computer is 64-bit capable (Intel Core Duo 2.0GHz and 3GB RAM), but for some reason came pre-installed with 32-bit Vista (it only came with 1GB RAM).

Not much reason to with those specs. But if you up it to 4GB RAM and do x64, then it would release an extra 2GB RAM for your use and speed things up considerably.

My situation is similar. Would this require a BIOS upgrade or will I simply need to change some BIOS configs?
