| | Getting a new Vista upgrade disc Had trouble upgrading to Vista from XP on my ACER laptop. The upgrade gets to the final bit and then Windows will not start so I went back to XP. After a few exchanges of emails I was phoned by ACER today and they suggest that there may be a fault on the disc. They have suggested I phone moduslink who provided the disc and they will send a replacement. I suspect that there is little chance this will happen. What do the people here think. I would have phoned them today but haven't had time. To be honest I like XP so might stick with it for a while but at some point I will upgrade so want a disk that'll work??? Tim |

| | Re: Getting a new Vista upgrade disc Tim; Moduslink is only the distributer. You can try them, but I doubt they can help. Your windows Vista is OEM, so Microsoft probably can not help. Try Acer again since the Vista Upgrade is actually from them. -- Jupiter Jones [MVP] http://www3.telus.net/dandemar http://www.dts-l.org "Tim Rogers" <nospam@sapm.net> wrote in message news:5a1j7gF2n120kU1@mid.individual.net... > Had trouble upgrading to Vista from XP on my ACER laptop.
