Hello

Yes you can but make sure that all your device and external
device will support the new OS, also you will need to make sure
that oldfer programs will support XP. Some good ADVICE
back up your important data.

Run the Upgrade Advisor program from the XP CD before doing the
upgrade as this will highlight any potential problems first.

See 'Check System Compatibility' from the Setup menu.
