BIT007

I upgraded from Vista Home Premium to Ultimate using our Microsoft Actiona
Pack License that says you must have a previous version to use it.

It required that I do a FULL install instead of an Upgrade. Seemed to go
perfectly, everything works, etc. Problem is that now I have both Vista Home
Premium and Vista Ultimate on my C: Drive and almost no space left.

How do I rid myself of Vista Home Premium on this computer now? It's taking
up around 52 Gig of space.

Thank you,

Hello Mark,

Thank you for the quick and helpful answer. I tried the bcdedit in the
command line but it didn't allow it. I do have admin rights. any ideas for a
novice?

Thank you,
JT
 
Since you boot to the new system by default, simply boot to the old system,
rightclick a Command Prompt icon on Start, to 'run as administrator', and
run the command :
BCDEDIT /delete

Then restart Windows
 
Nice Job! Thanks to both of you. the dos solution was too complex but i
appreciated it.

This last solution was my speed and worked in 5 minutes. thanks again!
