You should not change the Bios to 64-bit. Usually it is your operating system that is either 64-bit or 32-bit... Given that your processor supports 64-bit, which yours does. You should just be able to install Windows 7 64-bit... However, you cannot go from 32-bit to 64-bit without being forced to do a full install.

If you decide to switch to 64-bit, you will need to backup everything that you want to keep. And then once you are done, you will have to re-install all of your programs/games/ect.

The latest BIOS for the DH55PJ board is version 0046 available from the download center in the support section of Intel's website. The release notes describe changes and fixes since your 0037 version. Decide if any warrant a BIOS upgrade. 64-bit Win7 drivers for motherboard devices are available from the download center too.
