I don't know what to do. If you can help in any way that would be great! Thanks in advance for any help.

You installed the 64-bit to your windows 7? Do you mean you installed Java 64-bit?

You cannot change the system type of your computer. If you want a 64-bit operating system then you're going to have to buy a new one.
