Upgrade ME (french) to XP (English)

[Guest]

Are these compatable? Do I need english ME to upgrade to
english XP? Do I need to Format?

One cannot "upgrade" from one language version of Windows to
another language version. You'll need to purchase a "full version"
of Windows XP English and then perform a "clean install".

Greetings --

You cannot upgrade from one language version of the OS to another,
so you'll have to purchase and use the full version of English WinXP
to
perform a clean installation.
