Then you can upgrade your current install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to assume based on those questions that you aren't an official beta tester, but received Vista via the CPP. If I am correct in my assumption then you technically can't install this build and need to wait for RC1 to upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt T Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Back in the days of Beta 1, I never imagined myself saying this, but Vista is certainly shaping up to be a very attractive OS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
