Q: What are iTunes issues re: Upgrading Windows Vista 32 to Windows 7 64 bit

My PC is currently on Windows Vista 32 bit and I am about to upgrade to Windows 7 64 bit. I just tried to update iTunes (now on 12.0.1.26)  and had problems, came here to see why and found out 12.2 won't run on Vista.

So, can anyone help me plan best path to handle iTunes (and my Music Libraries) for this Windows upgrade? (and yes, I have checked to be sure my PC can support Windows 7 64 and also, later down the line, Windows 10). I will be needing to do a Custom Install for Windows 7 and do have an external drive available and plan to use Easy Transfer for files.

(in case it's relevant, I have iPhone 5, ipad Mini and an old iPad, all on iOS8)

PC, Windows Vista, Dell Inspiron Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4GHz 2x4MB

    SimpleChef - You might want to be sure your Windows 7 software is fully up to date. Even though it's an old system, updates do come up. When I did my conversion to W7 I was careful to update all the Microsoft software before installing iTunes. Can't hurt, might help?
