I don't have the option of upgrade, but rather clean installation, when I get
through to the setup screen on VISTA. I'm going from an XP 32 bit version on
a 64 bit machine to the VISTA 64. I removed Office 2007Beta2 as suggested in
the help file, but I still have the "upgrade" issue.
 
You can not upgrade from 32 to 64 bit or vice versa.
Try upgrading to Vista 32 bit.

If you want Vista 64 bit, you need to perform a Clean Installation of
Vista.64.
 
Hello,

Are you running setup from your Windows XP installation or are you booting
from the DVD?

You cannot upgrade to Vista 64. Only a clean install works.
