Upgrade Beta 2 RC1 ?
I've got XP installed on one hard drive, with Vista Beta 2 installed on a
separate physical drive. XP is the Primary boot drive. Will it be safe to do an Upgrade install of RC1 from within Beta 2 without screwing my XP installation? Thanks in advance

Upgrade Beta 2 RC1 ?
I believe your install will upgrade ok, as the upgrade should pick up the
partition that Vista is installed on. I can do some checking to confirm. -- Tom Ziegmann Microsoft Certified Professional Windows Vista / Server Longhorn Technical Beta Tester Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 2 Technical Beta Tester "Brian Wescombe" wrote: I've got XP installed on one hard drive, with Vista Beta 2 installed on a separate physical drive.

Upgrade Beta 2 RC1 ?
Brian
I just upgraded from Beta 2 successfully. Just insert the DVD you've just made (hopefully) whilst signed in to your Vista partition. You'll be given the option to upgrade. It will throw out any incompatible drivers, which should be re-installable. It also wiped my newsgroup subscriptions from Windows Mail and removed password from my email accounts. Haven't found anything else yet to moan about....looks good though. Peter Toronto, Canada. P4 HT @ 3.0ghz, 2.0gb DDR, 700gb HDD XP Pro SP2 X 2 + Vista Beta 5536 "Brian Wescombe" wrote in message ...
