Upgraded from Vista Home Premium to Ultimate. Both Versions on C D

I upgraded from Vista Home Premium to Ultimate using our Microsoft Actiona
Pack License that says you must have a previous version to use it.

It required that I do a FULL install instead of an Upgrade. Seemed to go
perfectly, everything works, etc. Problem is that now I have both Vista Home
Premium and Vista Ultimate on my C: Drive and almost no space left.

How do I rid myself of Vista Home Premium on this computer now? It's taking
up around 52 Gig of space.

Thank you,
JT

Hello Mark,

Thank you for the quick and helpful answer. I tried the bcdedit in the
command line but it didn't allow it. I do have admin rights. any ideas for a
novice?

Thank you,
JT

Since you boot to the new system by default, simply boot to the old system,
rightclick a Command Prompt icon on Start, to 'run as administrator', and
run the command :
BCDEDIT /delete

Then restart Windows
