Update from English to Spanish

[Oscar Barea]

How can I update my actual Windows XP Home edition
(English version) to Windows XP Professional (Spanish
Version)?

When I put the CD (Windows XP Professional (Spanish
Version) and tried to install it, the program stop with a
message that said The Update can not continue, because
your machine is in other languaje.

Please Help, what can i do?

One cannot upgrade a particular language version of Windows XP
to another language version. In your case, you'll need a "Full Spanish
Version" of Windows XP Professional and proceed with a "clean install".
