I have recently upgraded my system from windows 7 32 bit to 64 bit.
Unfortunetly, and unrelated, my HD crashed.
I am trying to load the backup VHD file that was created on the 32 bit as a virtual HD , it seems successful but when i try to look at the content windows tells me it cant read it.

1. Is it because i am now on 64 bit?
2. Can i somehow convert the file to 64 bit? Or load it as 32 bit?
