Update vista premium to vista business

[theotherone]

Hi, just as an information:

I´ve tried to update the original installed Version of Vista Premium on my AR41S to Vista Business because I´ve heard that it is better for use in company networks. I bought the update at a local software shop, telling them what i´m planing to do! At home I found out that it is not possible to update from premium to business! Only to ultimate.
What is that for a nonsense? Am I doing something wrong or is that really true?

Have a look at this , you can clean install your Business version and then you will not have an upgrade problem.

Good luck

Hi Andreas,

It is the same as for XP. You could not upgrade MCE 2005 to XP Pro.

The Media Centre versions cannot be upgraded to editions without Media Centre. You must do a clean install. You will lose all Media Centre Capability unless you go for Ultimate.
