Doing this without abackup of everything you can't afford to lose is foolhardy.--Ken Blake - Microsoft MVP Windows: Shell/UserPlease reply to the newsgroup
 
I second that. Read the posts here about the number of posters with failed
upgrades and failed rollbacks.
Backup everything you don't want to risk losing.
