Installation Resources for Windows Vista 32-bit and 64-bit Systems

The Windows Vista Support Team has published two Knowledge Base (KB) articles with helpful information on upgrading and/or installing Windows Vista from a Windows 2000 or Windows XP machine.

A third KB article published describes how to perform a custom installation of Windows Vista to work around upgrading versions of Microsoft Windows XP to Windows Vista because of language pack issues between the two products.

• KB 932616: "Installation choices for consumer versions of Windows Vista (32-bit only)"
• KB 932795: "Installation choices for 64-bit consumer versions of Windows Vista"
• KB 932856: "You cannot upgrade certain language versions of Windows XP to Windows Vista"

As a handy reference, the search page for the Support Knowledge Base (KB) link for Windows Vista has been added to the Microsoft Websites page of Windows Vista Bookmarks.
