Your computer is quite underpowered, but if you insist: You buy an upgrade version of Vista Business and run it from within Vista Home Basic. |

Your best bet would be to specify Vista Business on your new computer with
high enough specs to not choke to death.....otherwise, I suppose you could ignore the advice you have been given here and complain what a dog Vista is when your current computer chokes to death on it.

Go to the "upgrade paths" page linked from the above. Upgrade from Basic to Business is a viable path. The MVP Harper was just plain wrong about it not being possible. |

The upgrade paths there, are upgrades from previous versions; namely XP.
The link I posted, and MVP Harper are correct -- Mad Mike "Paul Montgomery" wrote: On Wed, 24 Sep 2008 21:23:01 -0700, Mick Murphy wrote: http://www.microsoft.com/uk/windows/.../overview.mspx Paul, here is a link for the anytime upgrade paths.
