I have a MacBook Pro Late 2011 and I'm wondering if I install Windows 7 Ultimate to this MacBook Pro with this Full Retail Version. And if so, which bit to use either 32-bit or 64-bit since I have both disks.

64 bit.

32 bit won't use all your computer's ram.

64 bit allows you to run 32 bit programs

Your computer is 64 bit

New programs use 64 bit.


There is no reason to use the 32 bit version of Windows.
