| | Re: Upgrade question Windows 2000 also qualifies. I can't confirm, but from what I have been reading, just the media is required, not an actual install. It would be silly to require an extra 2 hours to install Vista if you have to install XP first. Especially when Microsoft went to a lot of trouble to cut down the install time for Vista.
