Upgrade Vista Home Premium to Ulitmate with key= possible?
Hi,
I bought a new dell computer with windows home premium(english) installed on it. Now i have bought a legal and official licence key of vista ultimate (because i need some functions of ultimate(dutch)). I also have a DVD with which I can install all types of vista (32 bits). Now my question is: Can I upgrade my home premium to ultimate without reinstalling all my apps,... by having an official lisence key? How do I have to do it? THX!!!!

okay, my bad, i thought that utility let you use a key you already had as well
in that case, just put in the vista disc and load it from windows and go to install, and put in the Ultimate key. after that it should give you an upgrade option to keep everything there but pgrade to a new version
