Upgrade from x32 to x64 Win2k3

I just purchased 2 AMD x64 CPUs with motherboards and will be upgrading a
machine that is already running Win2k3 32 bit to Win2k3 64 bit. Are there any
online docs or web sites that can outline the things I should look out for as
I'm doing the upgrade?

My current 32 bit machine is running my domain controller, IIS, exchange
server and sql server.

The other board and cpu will be used to upgrade a machine running win xp pro
32 to win xp pro 64.

Thanks in advance.

The things you need to do when add/upgrading from a 32-bit DC, etc, to a
64-bit DC, etc., are the same as if you were adding/upgrading with another
32-bit one. Except that you can't run Exchange on x64 Edition, so you'll
need a 32-bit version of Server for the Exchange machine.

The version of Exchange "12" will support Windows Server x64.
