    So I currently have the business edition of vista but i want to upgrade it to ultimate. Is it possible to upgrade my business edition to ultimate vista without losing files/apps/etc using the CD? Basically i guess what i'm asking is a method to upgrade my business to ultimate without doing a clean install or using the anytime upgrade. thanks

    you can easily do an upgrade without losing your files with an anytime upgrade dvd. just pop the cd in while you're already booted into windows and it'll be self explanatory from there. You will have to purchase a new licence of course, which will be around 100 bucks.
