Any Vista users I need help!

[VolsSportsFan]

I'm currently trying to upgrade an XP machine to Vista for some development reasons (don't ask).

Anyway, I try to run the Upgrade to Vista option and it run the check and I get the error that I must uninstall Microsoft Powershell to continue.

So I go to Add/Remove and Microsoft Powershell is nowhere to be found. I do some googling and find you have to choose "Show Updates" at the top and the Microsoft Powershell installation is found under "Windows XP - Software Updates" and is update KB926139. Well it's not there either.

I then google some more and find you can do command line removal with $NtUninstallKB926139$\spuninst\spuninst.exe.....and that didn't work either.

So has ANYONE else had this issue, trying to uninstall Windows Powershell 1.0? I can't find anyway to get rid of it. I even tried to reinstall it and it said it's already on my machine.

If anyone help please do so, this is making my blood boil.

You could store you info, wipe you system and then load vista. then reload your info.

Yeah that's what I end up doing. I've only done one Vista install in my life and I had forgotten that I had to end up doing a wipe/clean install.

Oh well.
