VM2005 32bit vs 64bit

Message:

Hi, I incorrectly installed the 32bit version of VM2005 on our 64bit Windows
Server 2003 machine. I figured it out when I tried installing a Windows
Server 2003 x64 on a new VM and it would not let me. There are 4 VMs already
on this server, all of which are 32bit.

If I run the upgrade of VM2005 x86 Standard to VM2005 x64 Enterprise, will
my 4 VMs still work? Please advise....

Yes, they will still work, however, the 64-bit version of Virtual Server
still will not support 64-bit guests. That requires Hyper-V which won't
ship until after Windows Server 2008 ships.

That does not compute.

You install the right version of Virtual Server, it wouldn't have
installed if you didn't.

The problem is that Virtual Server only supports 32 bit guests.
