but i want 64bit mode as this is all 64bit compatible haredware.

Sorry i did not get you right, your system is created with 32-bit Right?
and now you want to run it as 64-bit ??

Well if thats what you want, then you have to create your unit again with 64-bit.

Backup your data, remove old 32bit unit, create new one, and then return your data back from the backup.

its a brand new system, all raid arrays were created fresh using 3ware bios and i have already installed open-e dss v6 64bit and activated it.

problem solved for anyone with tha same issue, the 3ware 9650 controller was out of date, i just updated its firmware to april 2011 from lsi and it now works.
