Can I use my 32bit XP Pro Serial to install a 64bit version?

-Sk3tChY- · 20th July 2009, 8:17 AM

I've currently got 32bit XP Pro installed on my PC.

I'm going to be upgrading my RAM real soon and since it's so dirt cheap these days I'm considering 8GB.

If I get my hands on a 64bit XP Pro CD is there any issues with using my current Serial to install it? Or do they require a different SK?

Cheers.
