Error Message:

Plz help me how can i install 64Bit Vista Ultimate
see "Installing a 64-bit version of Windows Vista on computer that is running a 32-bit version of Windows Vista"
as it states the installer wont run on a 32 bit OS, fine,, but everyone uses the dvd boot loader so im not sure what is meant there. i'd try the upgradeadvisor see if that throws any light on it.
