Default Unable to upgrade


With the latest CTP I tried to upgrade.

firts it asked to remove some software (virtual CDs)

then I works for more than 2 hours and after a reboot I got an error: Vista
was unable to upgrade. Previous windows has been restored.

I must say the restore was Perfect! (this is great)

But I was not able to upgrade my installation.

the clean install took more than 1 hour but succeded!

Default Re: Unable to upgrade

A number of factors can lead to this:

Incompatible software such as the one you mentioned, AntiVirus
Incompatible hardware device internal or external, limited hard disk space,
memory

Were there any error messages other than not able to upgrade?
