You may use one of the following: • A KMS host activated with a Windows 7 KMS key to activate Windows Vista and Windows 7 KMS clients. • A KMS host activated with a Windows Vista KMS key to activate Windows Vista KMS clients. • Windows Vista MAK. Note: Only the Windows XP Professional key allows downgrade to Windows XP.
