I have a Vista Home Basic Dell DVD. As a VMfag/nostalgiafag (I know Vista's EOL is next month), I'm planning to use it for a VM. Question is, can and how do I upgrade the Home Basic version to another version (e.g. Home Premium or Ultimate?)

Pretty sure there's Anytime Upgrade on Vista, you could find a key on some site

To install, I need to use a Home Basic key first. Since I'm not willing to use my actual Dell key (will probably be marked as in use anyway), can I use a deployment key to install? For Home Basic, it is RCG7P-TX42D-HM8FM-TCFCW-3V4VD (Note: this key cannot be activated).

does it have to be a retail edition of vista or would you be willing to use a volume licence edition?

It's useless.

Why not just use 7 with an activator?

Not even necessary if he wants the starter edition or home basic. Just clone some laptop stick

You have to reinstall if you want another edition, upgrading doesn't work like on win7
