Hello,

I have been testing Vista, and greedy as I was I of course tested Vista Ultimate to see how it worked.

I am now coming up to my 30 day limit so need to "downgrade" to the Vista Home Premium I actually purchased.

Though I havent done a huge amount work, I still have installed all the software I wanted to use (to make sure it worked) and changed settings etc.

Is there a way to change 'easily' from one version to another. I have heard rumours that you can just enter the product key of the new version and that will work. That doesnt seem to do the trick for me.

So then I was thinking whether I can just reinstall Vista but now with Home Premium instead, but I am concerned I will loose all my settings etc.

Has anyone tried something similar and have some experience to share on the subject?

Thanks
Jon

I thought the only way, was a complete re-install of a new version of Vista
In Xp you can Repair the Windows version (say from Home to Pro)
But in Vista it may be complete re-install, please let me know (seeming you have another 60days!!)
