Are you asking which edition comes with media for both 32 and 64 bit? That would be Ultimate retail only, AFAIK. For other retail editions, you have to send in for the 64 bit media. If you're asking which editions *come* in both 32 and 64 bit (depending on which you request), they all do, AFAIK (dunno about the Starter Edition).

both do afaik but the 64-bit edition doesn't come in the box like it does with other editions. You would have to purchase the 64-bit version from Microsoft for a small (-ish) fee after buying the 32-bit edition.
<disclaimer> that might have changed since I last heard :)

Starter Edition is 32-bit only and then it is also only licesed for use on certain processors.
Windows Vista Starter is licensed to run only on PCs with: Intel Celeron, Celeron D, or Celeron M processors Intel Pentium 3 processors Intel Pentium 4 processors not supporting Hyper-Threading technology Intel Pentium 4 processors model 541, 531, 524, 661, 651, 641, 631, 630, 640, 650, 660, 670 AMD Athlon XP, Duron, Geode or Sempron processors PCs with similar value processors from other manufacturers

Good day,
You will find that you can order the 64bit DVD from Microsoft if you read the packaging. It can be obtained for $13.00 US (perhaps more if outside North America) and takes about 4 weeks. I have obtained mine in this manner and installed Vista Home Premium 64 bit. I was not dissappointed. Works great and definately better performance if you run Dual Core.

Hi JoJo,
All editions of Windows Vista are available as 32-bit products. So you can run which ever one you want on your 32-bit PC. BUT before you do please check that your hardware is of high enough specification to run Vista and that all of you applications are compatible with Vista and you can get Vista drivers that are compatible with your hardware
