How to UPGRADE using FULL-VERSION

[Brian Lee]

Hello!

I have Windows XP Home installed on my system. I've
obtained a copy of Windows XP Professional through my
school's Academic License. My problem: The XP Pro CD I've
received is the *FULL VERSION*, not the upgrade version. I
would simply like to upgrade to Pro, instead of
uninstalling/reinstalling. How do I do this?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Brian.

While running XP Home, insert the XP Pro CD in the CD drive
and select the default "upgrade" option in the setup menu.
