Today I installed Windows Vista on my new T60, when I entered our corporate key for Vista the installer just died and the machine needed to be rebooted. This is a pretty embarrassing bug for the Microsoft folks given that a valid license key causes the installation to fail. My work-around was to redo the install but skip the key step so that I could enter it later.
During the installation it prompted me for the version of windows that was being installed. The CD is from the MSDN and it just says vista on it and I remember hearing that all version of Vista are the same, that the license used determines which features are enabled. So I chose Ultimate assuming that it would downgrade to business if necessary.
After I get the machine installed I enter the key and, low and behold, it won't accept it as an Ultimate key. But it also won't downgrade to Vista Business automatically either. So here I am reinstalling Vista again.
You should be able to use Vista Ultimate if you have the key from MSDN ... I got a few product keys, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista (all versions and 32bit + 64bit), Windows XP (all versions and 32bit + 64bit).
Maybe its just me, or i missed understood your post!!
I personally don't have an MSDN subscription, they have some volume licensing subscription. So I only got a business key, not an ultimate key.
Thank god, that I'm still using XP hehehe
