Hello All,
Admittedly, a post out of pure frustration.
I want to upgrade from Vista Enterprise/SP1 to Vista Ultimate/SP1
Life is after all more than just work, and i would lke to use Media Center edition.
In spite of the fact that I am a Volume license customer with SA and have paid extra for Ultimate media kits, there seems to be no way to upgrade from Enterprise to Ultimate. That is most unfortunate and frustrating as doing a clean Ultimate install may be an option in theory, but, with a mature Enterprise setup, not in practice!
I know, by the way, about changing the word 'Enterprise' into 'Business' in the registry., however it makes no difference.
The 'upgrade' option remains grayed out and I am being advised to install a 'newer' version?! The exsting setup is Enterprise/SPI and I am trying to go to ULtimate/SP1 which is certainly not older. So why is Vista complaining?
If there is anybody out there who could help, I would certainly like to know!
Best regards,
Boudewijn
