| | Upgrade to Windows Vista Business version After running the Windows Vista Upgrade Advsor, the result is as follows; based on our scan of your system Windows vista Business appears to be the best edition for you. Currently the Operating system I have is Windows XP Professional. My question is if I use the clean intallation verion (full version rather the upgrade will there be any problem). I know the price of the full vesion is higher that the upgrade one. But if there is no problem I would have preferred the Business full version upgrad. |

| | Re: Upgrade to Windows Vista Business version The difference with the Upgrade version of a Vista SKU is that it requires that you have a qualifying product installed on the system. -- Andre Blog: http://adacosta.spaces.live.com My Vista Quickstart Guide: http://adacosta.spaces.live.com/blog...3DB!9709.entry "Gebre" <Gebre@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:691DA84A-2B84-42A6-996C-E6D7C6CDCC1B@xxxxxx Quote: > After running the Windows Vista Upgrade Advsor, the result is as follows; > based on our scan of your system Windows vista Business appears to be the > best edition for you. > > Currently the Operating system I have is Windows XP Professional. > My question is if I use the clean intallation verion (full version rather > the upgrade will there be any problem).

| | RE: Upgrade to Windows Vista Business version Hi Gebre, If you follow the instructions in my post 'Clean Install Windows Vista Using Upgrade Media', alos in this newsgroup (dated 9/21/2007), you will be able to install any version of Vista. If you want a version with everything included, then I recommend Vista Ultimate.
