[QUOTE="Anusha, post: 250385, member: 828"] If you choose to purchase an upgrade version of Windows Vista to upgrade XP, you will no longer be able to use that version of XP. Either on another system, or as a dual-boot option. The key will be invalidated, preventing activation.

To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligiblefor the upgrade. Upon upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software you upgraded from. After you upgrade, you may no longer use the software you upgraded from. News source: [URL="http://www.tomcoyote.org/tech/vista-upgrade-invalidates-your-xp-key/74/"]TomCoyote.org [/URL] [/QUOTE]
