Vista Ultimate Came Pre-Installed on Laptop. - Nov

Thursday, July 03, 2008 7:47 AM

Is there any way I can order the Vista Ultimate 64 DVD from Microsoft or am I
stuck just being able to create the Acer Recovery Disks? I would be willing
to pay a small fee + shipping and Handling. I understand there are quite a
few recovery type features I am missing out on without the Vista DVD.

Regards.

If I'm not mistaken the recovery disks should include the full Vista recovery - Shane Nokes

Your laptop came with Vista pre installed. - joel406

Your laptop came with Vista pre installed. Its known as OEM(original
equipment manufacture). If you want X64 you will be forced to buy a
disk. I suggest newegg.com.

However your prduct key which is located on the green sticker on the
bottom of your laptop will work with any x64 Vista disk. As long as its
not a system resore disk.

You could download a copy of Vista x64, burn it to a DVD and install
from that and you would be fine. Just use the product key you already
have and activate and the rest is all downhill.
