Vista - Vista ultimate upgrade dvd

Hi when i first got my computer it came with XP Pro but with a free upgrade
to Vista business.So i sent away for the upgrade disk and installed it,i then
decided to upgrade to Vista ultimate on line payed for this .At the time you
could download the upgrade which is what i did.The problem know is having had
to re-install vista i don,t have a disk to upgrade from Vista business to
ultimate and you cannot download this now.I have tryed getting oe from arvato
in europe they said they had sent a disk out but when it did not arrive the
reply was they did not deal with thia anymore and redirected me here.Any

Yup... next time burn your download to a CD/DVD or save it somewhere
so you can use it again.

What did you originally download, the license key or the full DVD of Vista,
which is several GBytes in size?
When I want to reinstall from scratch, I can load my Home Premium, activate
it, access my digital locker online, access my upgrade license, stick in my
original Home Premium disk and upgrade to Ultimate using my original disk.

Of course I would actually just use my 'Full Backup' that I made with
Ultimate so I don't have to reinstall from scratch.

I am not sure if I can just install Ultimate first then access my license in
my digital locker and install the license key, which would save me the extra
installation step. The first method I mention above worked for me when I had
to reinstall, and the full backup restore worked for me a few weeks ago when
I tested it.
I also have copies of my license key (consisting of a file) so I don't have
to go online to retrieve it.

Hi,

If you purchased the Anytime Upgrade to Vista Ultimate, then your purchase
should be stored in Digital Locker:
