    Hi, I got Vista as a gift but its a clean install and I want to change it to upgrade. When I run the software I cant select the the upgrade option. Is there anyway round this?

    Not without swapping it for an Upgrade edition disk, afaik. You're better off with the clean install anyway, Windows upgrades are infamously dodgy.

    Well I agree the clean install is still the safer way to go but the upgrade process is much improved over XP at least.

    Vista does not actually upgrade XP it migrates over your applications and installs to it's own folder and renames the prior Windows XP install as Windows.old which you are free to keep or delete at your discretion so it is sort of a semi clean upgrade mechanism.
