| | Re: XP Pro to home Premium? Xp Pro to Home Premium would require a clean install, although it is eligible for upgrade pricing. Media Center to Home Premium can be upgraded. -- Jane, not plain 64 bit enabled :-)Batteries not included.

| | Re: XP Pro to home Premium? I also asked a simmilar question and as usual Microsoft gave me the ideal answer, which I quote:- <Please ensure to check your system requirements for installation of Vista before you buy the upgrade package at: http://www.microsoft.com/uk/windows/...e/default.mspx "Paula" <NoSpam@none.com> wrote in message news:ePXEzSdRHHA.1228@TK2MSFTNGP06.phx.gbl... > Can I upgrade XP Pro to Vista Home Premium? > What about MCE to Home Premium? > Thanks > > |

| | Re: XP Pro to home Premium? Hi, You can install the Home Premium Upgrade as a clean install without having a previous activated installation I found this out as I was having a problem upgrading a Acer Laptop. Vista would not do an upgrade as the XP installation was on a fat32 volume. I then booted into setup from the upgrade DVD formatted the drive then did a clean install. Tip is not to enter your serial number and select the correct installation type for your version of Vista. Once Vista has installed run the upgrade setup from within Vista then enter your serial number, activate the installtion once the second setup routine has completed.
