hello,
I bought a new laptop and am eligable for a free upgrade to Vista. However whenever I go to fulfill the upgrade, I get a message:

"An internal error has occurred. Please try again later".

It's through Toshiba...... what should I do? Should I just conctact Toshiba?

help,
Jess

Hi Jess.
I take it you're using the Toshiba Upgrade Redemtion Site?
It's probably just a server error. (busy or down). You could try again later, do it by mail or by phone.
You have until 3-15-07 to redeem it. More info here if you need it.
According to Toshiba, you'll get your cd "when available", whatever that means. They say 6-8 weeks.

usasma,
do you know if you need to pay for the Vista Upgrade? I was told I didn't....

Check out the link that HitSquad provided ( http://www.toshibadirect.com/td/b2c/ebtext...aExpressUpgrade )
There's a table near the bottom that summarizes what's free and what's not.

You shouldn't be able to order it prior to the release of Vista on January 30th.
