What is the secret..

The "secret" is that the setup program (setup.exe) in Windows Vista's upgrade version will accept an installed copy of XP, W2K, or an un-activated copy of Vista itself as evidence of a previous installation.

I used dban on my hard drive before I installed vista because I didnt want to be left with the 7gb windows.old folder again and had problems after I deleted the windows.old folder before.
