| | Upgrade - Difference licence to disc version I am running Vista Ultimate on a desktop and now wish to upgrade a laptop to Vista. The disc I have is the Ultimate version but for the laptop I only want to install the Home Premium version. Can I just buy an additional licence from the Microsoft web site to cover the Home Premium but use my Ultimate disc to install the software. |
