Hi there.. I just bought a new laptop that comes preinstalled with Vista Home
Basic. Is there any possible way I could upgrade it to Vista Home Premium
without having to purchase the whole dvd box set package? I heard this could
be done and it would result in some savings by upgrading the license or
something. The laptop manufacturer did not offer any OS upgrade options and
could not do so when requested. Pls help ASAP. Thanks.

Rightclick on "Computer" and choose "Properties". Under "Windows
edition" it should give you the "Anytime upgrade" option.
