Heres the story:

I got my laptop at Christmas and it came with Windows Vista Home Premium. I’ve had to reinstall it three times now due to random junk happening to it (me running over it with the bulldozer Ubuntu lol)

Anyway, I have my laptop with Premium on it and want Ultimate. So without thinking, I went to the store and got the Ultimate Install DVD.
Then I thought, wait a minute. What if it won’t let me upgrade from premium to ultimate?

Well that’s my question.

Can I or can I not upgrade Microsoft Windows Home Premium to Microsoft Windows Ultimate with the Microsoft Windows Ultimate Install DVD? (A lot of Microsoft Windows there lol!)

THANKS IN ADVANCE!
I WILL LOVE YOU FOREVER IF YOU ANSWER IT RIGHT!

“…Will ya love me forever” “…Lemme sleep on it…” lol that song was just stuck in my head :D

    If its the upgrade disk you can go to ultimate and maintain settings. If not then the Ultimate install will produce a “windows.old” file containg all your premium stuff.
