Upgrade from win xp home to win xp pro

[Bart Reyserhove]

Hi all,

Is there a clean way to upgrade a win xp home (dutch
version) to win xp pro (english) version, without
formatting the complete HD.

The problem is that he does not want to upgrade because
the language is not the same, he only wants to do a full
installation, but I don't want that, because then I would
have two installations of win xp, and that is not ok of
course.

Thx,

Bart

You cannot upgrade from one language version of the OS to another,
so you'll have to purchase and use the full version of English WinXP
Pro to perform a clean installation.
