Vista Business to Ultimate and Transferring Licences between PCs.

[Guest]

Hi. I'm in New Zealand and want to

I currently have 2 PCs.
PC1: With Vista Home Premium
PC2: With Vista Business

I want to
1. Upgrade Vista Business to Vista Ultimate on PC2
2. Transfer Vista Ultimate From PC2 to PC1
3. Transfer Vista Home Premium from PC1 to PC2

Whats the easiest way for me to do this? Can I do this online with Anytime
Upgrade?

FYI The reason for all of this is because Vista Business Does not support
Parental controls!!!!

Please help - I find these communities great.
Regards Stupot

Hi,

If those systems came preinstalled with Vista, then you cannot swap the
OS's. The OEM versions are usually locked to the system they ship with. If
they are from retail disks, then you will simply need to start over cleanly
with both machines, installing the preferred OS on each, then upgrading the
business system to ultimate.
