| | Windows XP PRO upgrade to Vista Business ,When trying to upgrade to Vista Business the installation procedure only allows me to save on 'H' NTFS Primary drive of 8MB capacity, I have other drives with totally unused or sufficient capacity to upgrade to Vista Business. Windows Vista Upgrade will not allow me to change the drive letter. I do have a 200GB unformatted logical drive partition on my computer's hard drive I do have a portable hard drive of 200GB. Please can anyone advise how to overcome this without reformatting my computer's hard drive. I look forward to receiving advice on this. Regards |

| | Re: Windows XP PRO upgrade to Vista Business Check the packaging. I think 'upgrade' means to upgrade from a current qualifying operating system installation to the new OS. If the only current qualifying OS is on the 8MB partition, then that is the only place the upgrade can occur. You can't upgrade into a new empty partition. -Paul Randall "Jerome" <Jerome@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news C6913E6-24DE-4B0D-9B79-EC5352D2A6B6@microsoft.com...> ,When trying to upgrade to Vista Business the installation procedure only > allows me to save on 'H' NTFS Primary drive of 8MB capacity, I have other > drives with totally unused or sufficient capacity to upgrade to Vista > Business. > > Windows Vista Upgrade will not allow me to change the drive letter. > > I do have a 200GB unformatted logical drive partition on my computer's > hard > drive > > I do have a portable hard drive of 200GB. > > Please can anyone advise how to overcome this without reformatting my > computer's hard drive. > > I look forward to receiving advice on this. > > Regards > > |
