Having trouble installing what I want from Linux Mint 16 Disc from LinuxFormat Mag

I am most likely missing something simple but hoping for a quick answer.

I have Mint Cinnamon 13 on my dual boot 64 bit Windows 7 laptop.
I go a DVD from Linux Format Magazine that says it has Petra 64 Cinnamon as one of the choices for install.

When I boot up with the disc I only see Fedora 64 or Mint 32 bit.
All I seem to be able to install is Mint Mate.

Could someone please give me a kick in the right direction to install Mint 16 Cinnamon in 64 bit?
Thank you
Retro

I have that DVD and the LinuxMint 16 dir only has the lfx_min_16.iso that I see, so I'm wondering if that iso gives you a choice of 32 or 64 bit. You probably need to burn the iso to a DVD and boot off it and see...if you haven't already done that.

Cheers,
