Reinstalling Window Vista

[Guest]

Okay, here it goes. I installed Ubuntu Linux and Window Vista on the same
partition. There was no problem until I installed another hard drive and
installed Window XP in that one. It messed up the GRUB that show what OS To
boot. I couldn't do anything. But, the Window Vista and the files were still
okay. Window XP was still ok and that gave me a chance to post here. Now, I
decided to reinstall window vista. Backing up the files are finish. So how do
I reinstall window vista? I only have the upgrade cd.

Hello,

* what if you try booting from your Upgrade DVD and select the startup
repair options? It could be possible that Setup finds your installation and
repairs it.
* If not, you could try reinstalling the Upgrade over the other Vista. I
don't know if this works as expected, though.
* Third option is to install the Vista upgrade over XP.
