I am attempting an upgrade to XP Home from MS Me. The
hardware is compliant with XP minimum specifications. I
purchased XP Home Upgrade and followed directions. But I
have not been able to complete the upgrade. The upgrade
hangs during "Finalizing Installation" at 27 minutes left
in the installation. The CPU usage moves to 100%. I have
attempted numerous work arounds including removing all
devices, cleaning up device conflicts in Device Manager,
ending all SVCHosts and monitoring software conflicts. I
also spent 2 hours with MS Tech Support only to find I now
need to purchase the additional full XP installation CD.
Are there any suggestions on how I should address
this?
