|
|
(First of all, if you're going to say how much Vista sucks, don't post.)
My laptop has Windows Vista Hope Premium. Has anyone here ever at one point had Home Premium and used the Anytime Upgrade to Ultimate? What changes? What is added? Any new default games come with it? (E.g., I believe that Chess Titans does not come with Home Basic, so I would guess that another game or two are included with Ultimate)

All I can get to is this, but it doesn't help too much.
I'd still rather hear someone who HAS Ultimate to explain any differences between Ultimate and Home Premium.
EDIT: Just curious, what's so bad about Chess Titans? I've played it numerous times...It works fine...

If your a complete Chess nerd geek dude then you'd switch too another.
If your just an average person bored, looking to play a simple game of Chess then Chess Titans is fine...
I'd assume when you upgrade to ultimate you get all ultimate features, it wouldn't be called upgrade anytime to ultimate if you can't get ultimate features...

Done the Windows Anytime a few times and here's how it goes.
Click on the Windows Anytime Upgrade and it will bring you to a secure site.
The site will analyze your PC and determine which version of Vista you can upgrade to (not all version of Vista can be upgraded directly to Ultimate).
Type in your personal info and credit card # as upgrading to Ultimate cost $175 (can't remember the exact price, but it's pretty expensive).
Finish the other questions asked and when your done, a Vista installation windows will appear prompting you to insert the Windows Anytime Upgrade disc (if you don't have one, you can still use a stand alone Vista disc. Click on install to begin the upgrade.
The only difference between Home Premium and Ultimate is
Ultimate have the following that Home Premium does not are (this is not a complete list from the Vista Guide document)
Complete Image Backup (Home Premium can only back up files, Ultimate can back up the entire OS)
Ultimate Extras
Shadow Copy
128+ GB (HP 64bit 16GB max.)
Control over installation of device
MultiUser language
Dual Processor support
