I have a Vista x64 Home Premium that came loaded with software from the manufacturer that I would lose if I were to overwrite it by a new installation from my MSDN subscription version of Vista Ultimate.
If I install Vista Ultimate as a brand new installation, Virtual Server installation works fine.
But if I install Virtual Server 2005 R2 SP1 after I upgraded Vista Home Premium to Vista Ultimate, I get the following error at the last phase of the installation: “Windows Installer has stopped working” and then it sends to Microsoft the attached 3 files.
Any idea why the upgraded version fails whereas the brand new installation does not?
