hey all,
just purchased a sony vaio laptop w/xp home installed. I have a domain in
our house, with exchange server running, and all the machines are either
win2k server or winxp pro.

i have an extra copy of pro and i wanted to update the laptop, but was
afraid that i would "lose" all of the laptop settings, drivers, etc. in the
progress. Also, it would be an in-place upgrade and not a clean.

the main reason is, not being able to connect to the domain, however, i can
still access all the network folders, drives, machine, mail, etc., only
after typing in a BOATLOAD of user/passwords for each connection.

what do you think ? safe to upgrade ?
thanks.
