I was about to migrate to Win7 Professional 64 bit (using an OEM DVD

from Novatech) but, having tried and failed, I now realise that I
have a 32
bit processor! Novatech won't exchange it because the seal is broken
so it
looks like it might be an expensive mistake UNLESS ...

Can a 64 bit OEM licence key be used for the 32 bit version? (This is
OEM,
not retail). If it can then I only to borrow the 32 bit media from
somewhere, but web searches give conflicting advice.

The licence keys are different. Did you buy the machine and software
from
Novatech at the same time? If so you might have a good case against
them.

No, I'm re-vamping my X60s with an SSD and (supposedly) Win7. I should
have run the MS compatibility tool first :-(

eBay it?

Yes, that's probably what I'll have to do if I can't find a buyer
elsewhere. It cost £116.99 so yours (or someones!) for £100
