Get a x64 bit disc. I downloaded the 64bit version, and used my 32bit key fine. The key was OEM like yours as well

I just took 64 bit off, as my games didn't run as well as they did with the 32 bit vista!
Spiderman ran pants, but is fine with 32 bit!
Going 64 bit seems pointless, as there are very few games that run in 64 bit mode.
I also know someone that played Warhead with only 2gb of ram with no problems!
Hope ya sort it

Supreme Commander - and Supreme Commander - Forged Alliance
both of them can use more then 1.5GBs of ram if you have 4-5 players or more
most people have an issue where it gets to 1.5GBs of RAM usage then crashes
SC and FA are both CPU/RAM Intensive and require allot of power to run
and WarHead has some Memory leaks so yes it can use more then 1500MB aka 1.5GB of ram but i have never passed 1300MB so far i am upgrading to 64bit Vista HP soon, retail disk so i can upgrade my motherboard in future

when i play either crysis my total ram usage is anywhere from 70% to 85%....so yes to play crysis comfortably you need at least 4GB of ram...
