If you decide later to upgrade your version of Vista (i.e. from Home Basic to Home Premium), you will need to change your product key. Or, if you're having a problem with the product key you enter and you have to change it. All you need to do is follow the instructions below:
- Open the Control Panel folder under the Start menu.
- Double-click the System applet.
- Click the 'Change Product Key' link in the 'Windows activation' section.
- Then follow the instructions in the Windows Activation dialog that is displayed.

I currently have OEM Vista Home premium (VHP) legally installed pn my current PC.
I also OWN a key for Vista Ultimate.
So. According to your blog, if I want to have Vista Ultimate installed on the current PC with VHP, all I need to do is to change the product key and then I have Vista Ultimate?
I am jsut asking because I would rather not loose my OEM provided factory re-install option. Yes, I know that would put me back to VHP.
I would hate answer this question, wrong so I am going to refer you to http://forums.microsoft.com/Genuine/. This is the best place to get that question answered. They do a great job at this site.
