Upgrading Vista Ultimate to Windows 7 Home Premium?

Branoic · 2009-10-29 08:33:25

Is this possible? I have Vista Ultimate and want to upgrade to 7 but i see no reason to get the Windows 7 Ultimate package. But I've read that you have to upgrade "ultimate to ultimate", otherwise I'd need to do a clean install to replace my vista ultimate with a 7 home premium.

That's correct. Ultimate to Ultimate.

I went from Vista Ultimate to Windows 7 Professional and it required a full fresh install. No "upgrade" option at all.
