upgrading from vista home to vista business

[Guest]

hello,
i'm due to inherit a laptop with vista home already on it, i need to install
vista business on it ( i assume home isn't able to be added to a domain) . Is
this possible to do as an upgrade and can i upgrade with my vista business
disks or does it need a special upgrade one?

I'd rather not do a clean install as its a lot of effort to find all the
drivers needed for the laptop

Yes, that is a supported upgrade path.

Hi, Joseph.

It's always good to see another Softie helping out here. ;<)

But, could you please hit the switch on your news reader to quote the
message to which you are replying? All I see is the single line quoted
below. I see the answer, but I don't know what the question was. It must
have been in an old post because it doesn't appear in my message list, which
goes back to July 07, so it must have scrolled off already. Knowing the
question could make your answers much more meaningful.

Thanks.
