- Trying to install Vista Ultimate upgrade (without going through clean install) from Vista Home Premium
- also un-installed MS Office 2003 Web Components
- directions re: microsoft/kb/234368 don't apply (no virtual servers to un-extend, nor is there anything to remove via Add / Remove)
- searched registry for "frontpage" (and removed the following program, as well as registry keys) and "webserver extensions" (nothing found)
- removed MS Expression Web 2
- removed the folder "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions"
- reboot and try upgrading Vista Ultimate again
- still cannot upgrade (must uninstall FPSE)

Tried it all, then bit the bullet and did a "clean install" instead of upgrade . . . now dealing with those issues
