Is it possible to downgrade vista enterprise to vista business by changing the serial #? If that is not possible, it is possible using the repair option? I am not using bitlocker drive encryption, so I don't think I am using anything vista enterprise specific.

Why bother downgrade when you can disable the few functions? CLICK ME to see the only difference between Vista Enterprise & Vista Business.

Yup!

No need to downgrade considering there's only a subtle difference between the two flavors, moreover - you don't have a stash of Vista keys now - do you?

The enterprise key isn't mine, while I bought legal business licenses. I want to convert my vista installation to my purchased licenses without having to reinstall everything all over again.
