| | Re: Upgrade from XP Home to Vista Home Premium You did a "Custom" clean install and not an upgrade. You can't put those programs back. Go to the Toshiba site and most can be downloaded.

| | Re: Upgrade from XP Home to Vista Home Premium Sorry, I'm not understanding too well. How can I have done a "custom clean install" when I only have Upgrade software ?
