| Upgrade install of SP2 RTM on top of clean install of SP2RC? I did clean installed Vista SP2 RC from Vista SP2 RC DVD. Does this means I have to clean install Vista SP2 RTM when it become available? Can I upgrade instll Vista SP2 RTM on top of Vista SP2 RC?      |

| Re: Upgrade install of SP2 RTM on top of clean install of SP2RC? Uninstalling the SP2 RC to install the RTM is the acceptable way to do this.
