Re: Vista SP 1 Next Week?
Can't you use an upgrade DVD to install Vista on a clean drive? I remember reading that all vista DVDs are the same and it's only the product key that determines what version will be installed.
So, you install the version you've paid for on a clean drive without entering an cd key. This should load vista and give you 30 days to register. Once installed, then do an "upgrade" - this time entering your upgrade key.
