Hi, I have a Vista Ultimate machine on AMD X2 motherboard today. It
was originally XP, then I used Vista Business Upgrade CD to get to
Vista Business, then I used ANYTIME Upgrade @ microsoft.com $139 to
get to Vista Ultimate. Everything is fine.
Now I want to swap the motherboard to a Intel Duo 2 based unit. I am
pretty certyain a simple motherboard swap will leave me in a blue-
screen since the CPU and chipset are very different. I am kinda sure
that Vista won't even boot when I power it on.
So, how can I swap the mobo and then 'repair' to a full Vista Ultimate
situation.
I have a Vista Business Upgrade CD and a ANYTIME Upgrade 'universal'
CDROM available. I also have a Vista Busines Upgrade KEY, and the
ANYTIME Upgrade "slupkg-ms" file which was in my Digital Locker at
Mirosoft when I purchased the Ultimate upgrade.
Can anyone suggest the steps to get from current AMD system, to new
Intel system?
