Re: Dual booting with 32 bit after 64 bit

Hi,

It's certainly possible. Are you sure they preinstalled x64? That'd be
unusual as most are preinstalled with x86 (the 32 bit version). If it's x64,
it will designate that in the system type line of system properties.

If it truly is, then what steps are you taking to install x86, and (please
be specific) where does it fail?

Also, a preinstalled system should already include x64 drivers for
wired/wireless internet access, you should not have to revert to 32-bit for
that. At worst, all you may need to do is download and install an
appropriate driver.

As to iTunes, you simply need a higher version as described here:
