Red face Solved: Windows XP to Vista
Hey,

I'm not very good at this type of thing, im good with computers, it's just it seems i cant do the easy stuff

but anyway, i have XP Pro installed on my HP 530, and i want to install Vista Ultimate.

Do i need a disk to install it?
and
If i need a disk, can i burn my own?
if so, how?

Thanks alot to whoever answers this

To install Vista you will need to buy a copy from a legal source.
