Hi,
Due to some faulty hardware in a PC i'm upgrading from Win XP professional,
the hardware has been disabled.
Is the hardware re-enabled during an upgrade to Vista Business 32bit?
I know that this was the case when upgrading from '98 to 2000, it was "by
design" that the hardware tables weren't kept, is it the same here?

Thanks
 
Thanks, Richard!
Thats dissapointing and explains the failed upgrade.
Oh well, i'm sure they did it for a valid reason.
Cheers,
Chris

Yes, the hardware should be re-detected and activated in Vista.
