You can't use that. You don't have Windows 7 Home Premium. You have Windows Vista Home Premium. You would want to look at the "full" version of Windows 7 Ultimate, or the "upgrade" version of Windows 7 Ultimate. The upgrade version just wants to see your prior XP or Vista OS, and you CAN upgrade from Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 Ultimate. You don't really need the full discs unless you're going to a blank hard drive. The following "upgrade" version would likely be what you'd want, but I'd also keep in mind you likely don't really need the additional features of Ultimate.

You can’t use that. You don’t have Windows 7 Home Premium. You have Windows Vista Home Premium.

It's as it says it is, Windows Vista Premium. The different prices you saw were, most likely, the Upgrade Version and the Full Version. I don't believe you can upgrade the Premium version of Vista to the Ultimate version of Windows 7. You'll need to buy the Full version. No, Windows Vista Premium is NOT Windows 7.
