Uprgrade From Home SP3 To Pro SP2

[Technically Challenged]

I currently am running Windows XP Home with SP3. I purchased XP Pro with SP2
upgrade. What will be the SP status be after the upgrade? Will Windows retain
SP3 or will I have to re-install the SP3 upgrade? Thank you.

Create a "Slipstreamed" Windows XP Pro Disk
that includes SP3 to use for the upgrade.

I use AutoStreamer, it's easy to use and for the most part self explanatory

The slipstreamed CD you create will not include any specific drivers
for your motherboard, audio, video, network, etc. Those you will
need to download from your PC manufacture's or motherboard's
web site.
