XP Home to Pro Compatibility Error

Guest

I have an HP Pavilion513 running XP Home and need to upgrade to XP Pro. At
the start of the install i get a compatibility error about an Nvidia AGP
Filter driver. It says "The currently installed driver for Nvidia Nforce
device is not compatible with this version of Windows. Setup will not be
able to complete." One this is i don't have an Nvidia video card. The
machine is using the onboard Intel VGA adapter. I called HP about this and
they have no idea and can't help me. As anyone had this before or know
anything about this?? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Rich

Try setting your video to standard VGA before you run the installation and
see if that fixes it. Then you can update the driver after the install, if
it doesn't do it automatically.
