I'm wondering, is there an upgrade path from Beta 2, Pre-RC1, or RC1 to the
final retail version? Or will I have to do a clean install? Please answer if there is a difference between the upgradability of the various builds. |

Upgrade limitations You may not be able to upgrade your installation of Windows Vista Beta 2 (or RC1) to the final, commercially available edition of Windows Vista. To upgrade you will need to acquire the final edition of Windows Vista and you may have to do a clean installation. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsvist...y/preview.mspx -- Jane, not plain 64 bit enabled ![]() Batteries not included.

Personally, I wouldn't do it any other way.
