Im trying to upgrade Windows 2000 Pro to Windows XP upgrade, and it give me a
message saying it doesn't support the upgrade. What else can I do?

I suspect that you are trying to upgrade to XP Home or that you are
using an OEM version for the upgrade. You can only upgrade Windows 2000
to Windows XP Professional. You will have to get a different upgrade cd
or you will have to install cleanly.

John,

I am having the same issues with my upgrade and I suspect it is exactly what
you are talking about. How do I install "cleanly"? I would like to try
this...
