If I have a box that currently has Vista Business , and I have a Vista
Ultimate DVD, can I simply do an inplace Upgrade aka a repair install with
the Vista DVD to convert Business to ultimate without going through the
"anytime upgrade" platform? I'm looking to avoid formatig with the Ultimate
DVD to get to Ultimate.
The repair install method I refer to is outlined in these two links.
Several people have reported on this newsgroup that a repair install does
work in Vista.
