Windows Vista37
I am trying to upgrade from Vista Home Premium to Vista Ultimate. I am

running Mac OS-X on an I-mac using VM Fusion. Vista Home Premium runs as a

virtual machine. After starting Vista, I insert the upgrade disk, but

nothing happens. How can I complete the upgrade? I sure hope I didn't waste

$199 for the upgradge package.

If you bought the anytime upgrade then you run the license file and follow

the instructions. The instructions should be to insert your anytime upgrade

disk into the drive when prompted. Then you install Vista by clicking on the

setup or install option. The install will know you are doing an anytime

upgrade and will now install Vista Ultimate.

If you don't know where your "license" for the upgrade is, then...

From Microsoft...

"A personal digital locker is created for you when you purchase a Windows

Vista upgrade. Your digital locker stores your product keys and purchase

information which, when used together, allow you to reinstall your upgrade

if necessary. A copy of your upgrade is also stored in your digital locker.



To access your upgrade in your digital locker for recovery:



Click Start, and then click Control Panel. Double-click the digital locker

icon. Alternatively, you can go directly to the Digital Locker website.

I never get a prompt. After booting up via VM Fusion and getting into my

current version of Vista, I insert the disk, but when I go to "Start",

"Computer," the disk doesn't even appear. What do I do now?
