    I want to upgrade my SZ330 from XP PRO to VISTA. on sony support website they recommend to upgrade to Windows Vista™ Business. Can I upgrade to VISTA Ultimate or the drivers available are specific to Windows Vista™ Business?

    Anyone has upgraded to VISTA ULTIMATE please tell if the available Driver(s) are working for VISTA ULTIMATE?

    T.I.A.

    Same drivers for all versions of Vista, they only differ if you have either the 32/64bit version and that is only in some cases.

    Sony told me they wouldn't support my machine if I used Ultimate, so I sent it back to Microsoft (they said they would refund) and bought Business for that reason. You can't activate Business from an Ultimate key (though you can install it with no key) using the non-enterprise upgrade edition, at least, I was told by their help center. I have most things working well; it is much more stable than XP for my set of programs (large).
