I recommend not to download the upgrade, move over to Looking for ISO files?, and click on the Get the ISO files, you will find the languages options and OS bit versions (32-bit or 64-bit).

ISO Installation
After downloading it's time to move closer to a Windows 10 Technical Preview test drive. Well, the next step is the installation process. Burn a disc or copy the files to a USB drive and insert it into the PC.

If your machine doesn't have a copy of Windows, you need to boot your PC from the USB drive or disk.
Follow the wizard to install Windows on your machine.
