Default vista upgrade


If I buy a copy vista ultimate upgrade for my xp when I buy a new computer,
with home premium can I transfer ultimate to the new computer.

Yes, assuming the upgrade is retail and not OEM.
Also, you will need to remove Ultimate from the first computer since it can
only be installed on one computer at a time.

Hi,

Yes, assuming you remove it from the XP computer. The license is good to
upgrade a single system. To upgrade additional systems you need to purchase
additional license.
