Activating Vista on a Newly Upgraded Computer?
Robert Katz robtk...@gmail.com microsoft public windows vista installation_setup Thanks Ronnie Here's something I left out. While I still had the machine, I'm willing to buy my own copy of Vista, but will I be able to activate it without installing it? I don't want to wipe out my disk. Thank you, ---Robert.
