I have a copy of Windows Pro 7 32 bit English Kit Direct which I purchased through the Student/Teacher scheme. I have now updated my computer and can run a 64 bit version. How do I do this? Do I have to buy an upgrade

Supposedly you can download the .ISO file and burn your own DVD.

You will have to do a clean install of the 64-bit version as there is absolutely no "upgrade" from 32-bit to 64-bit.
