You boot from the Vista DVD. When you get to the screen where you choose the
install partition, pick advanced options. Then delete the old partition,
create a new partition and then format the partition. Then you can advance
to the next stage. Follow the on screen instructions.

With Vista, you can't "upgrade" in the normal sense. You would need to
format and do a clean install. So, make sure you backup all your
information. But, you can use your same product key to install the 64 bit
version.

You need to obtain the 64 bit media (contact HP support for the OEM disks)
and start the install from there.

Just adding to all other replies. Is your HP 64 bit capable. I mean your Motherboard and all the drivers
