    Windows Vista x86/x64 OEM/RTM

    Hey team, I need some help with a lappy I'm redoing for my niece. Specifically, an ISO of Vista Home Premium. I have a valid license but no install disk. the lappy runs Win7 x64 but most of the drivers won't install properly.

    Can anyone help?

    Closest thing i have to that is Vista Ultimate 64bit. Close enough or too much additional junk for a laptop to drudge through?

    Hmmmm.... Thx guys for responding.

    IIRC the Vista installer is similar to Win7 in that all versions are part of the disk, just locked out. My slipstreaming util has a feature to unlock that. I'll give the Ultimate version a try.

    So JPM can you UL to something like copy.com and PM me the link?

    Sorry for responding late. Zombie, if you still need a ISO or even just a physical disk I believe I have one handy if you still need it.

    You can download the iso from Digital River who distributes MS as part of their distribution channel.

    HERE

    These are the "trial" versions that will expire after 30 days. Since you have the key you can activate them. I downloaded a Win7 version 2 days ago and then activated it and it worked great.

    Sorry, was breezing through the forums at work and got distracted by the Avatar...
