Need Help upgrading IQ816t Touchscreen from Vista Home Prem to Win7 Ult

I purchased (eBAY) 25" IQ816t with Vista Home Prem, and seller provided Win7 Ult AIO disk with the deal.   Seller reset to base OS prior to shipping to me.  Everything works fine w/Vista.

 

When trying to run the AIO disk,  using UPGRADE mode, I get conflicting message(s)...you can not upgrade from 64 bit to 32 bit;...and you can not upgrade from 32 bit to 64 bit.   What gives?   I am doing something wrong?

 

Seller firm in that they had Win7 Ult running fine and that the AIO disk should work fine.

 

Thanks in advance.

Mike

I have the same model you have.  Our model is Vista 64, so if you are trying to upgrade, you can only upgrade to Win 7 64, and it sounds like you got a Win 7 32 disc.  See if it will let you do a full install of it and not an upgrade, if it won't, you need to get the Win7 64 disc for this.
