Vista 64bit graphics requirements

[JDRUT10]

I purchased a laptop in May pre-installed with Vista Ultimate 64bit and have
decided that I'm better off the 32bit version instead. When I contacted the
laptop maker I was told that I would have to change the graphcs card in the
laptop in order to work with the 32bit version because the graphics in the
laptop was specific the the Vista Utimate 64bit OS that was installed.

Is there any truth to thier statement? I have never heard of that being the
case.

Thanks

Visit your PC's support web site and see if a Windows Vista 32-bit
video adapter driver is available for your specific model video adapter.
If all they have is a 64-bit driver, then you know the answer.
