There are *two* Windows 7 DVDs in each normal package. You need to use the other one to install. And yes, you have to fresh install when moving between 32-bit and 64-bit. You might try using the built-in Windows Easy Transfer wizard to move things over though. If you buy a boxed store version, it’s supposed to come with both 32-bit and 64-bit discs.

You would most probably have to re-install 7. And if you installed a 32 bit version, I believe the DVD you have is of a 32 bit version, which means you 'll have to spend more bucks to get a 64 bit one. Do make sure your system can support a 64-bit Operating System, before you install, because, otherwise you're screwed :).
