    Hi,

    I was wondering if it is possible to downgrade from windows 64 bit to 32 bit on new laptops as i noticed most the new ones come as 64 bit.

    would i have to reinstall a previous version of windows?

    thanks

    They're 64 bit versions as the newer processors are 64bit. Why do you want to use 32 bit?

    You'd have to re-install Windows to go from 64-bit to 32-bit and vice versa.
