so here is long story short currently i have a 32 bit on my computer (validated and everything) but i have lost both the cds and the code when i moved out my old place. my friend suggested i download this legit installer (from a university) for a 64 bit windows 7 since he could not find a 32 bit installer. now i am stuck, i dont know if my computer even has a 64-bit processor and how will i get Microsoft to give/find me my old code and will this code for a 32 bit windows work a 64 bit that i am not even sure would work on my PC...
so in short:
1) how do i know what kind of processor i have.
2) will the code that validated my 32 bit also validate my 64 bit?
3) do you have any suggestions as to what to do?
i really need to reinstall this windows because this computer really needs to be cleaned from the ground up.
