Well, I think vampires are on the whole considered to be undead, since apparently magic effects targeted at the undead seem to work on them, and that was apparently how it was determined that Ash Vampires were infact not undead. But, it may not be necessary to have died to become undead, if being undead is simply a different form of metabolizm that your body could shift into, which would make more sense as it seems there would need to be a wizard to start you up if you actually died, but I might be thinking about necromancy too mechanically.
