Which one is the best, restore grub load or reinstall 64bit Fedora 16

[yujian]

My notebook is updated to 8G memory,  and I reinstall a Win7-64bits system,
so the grub info of F16 is lost.
Now I need to restore the grub load info of F16, or reinstall F16 64-bits
version.  I do not know how many difference of 32-bits and 64 bits of F16.

If I understand your question, you are looking for some reference on the
difference between 32-bit and 64-bit F16.

I don't have a document reference, but I do know that if you chose to
run 64-bit F16, there will be occasion where both a 64-bit and 32-bit
function will exist on the system to support applications that are
compiled 32-bit only.

I have not had any issues with running 64-bit F16 and being able to run
32-bit applications within this environment.

Are you saying you installed Win7 into a partition that once had F16. If
they are in different partitions than a grub-install should fix the
problem. Or is it grub2-install. I don't have my F16 here so I am not
sure.

Win7 and F16 are in two different partion.  But I do not have F16 DVD,  I
will try to use the grub4dos to load in the fedora system to resotre  grub
