Hi there,
I have a computer with XP Home currently installed on C: drive. (I own both
the Pro and Home versions so there's no problem there.)
Here's the main problem. A few years ago when Norton was on here there was
a problem with GoBack. It ended up reversing the two hard drives. The
larger drive (55 GB) is now D: and is vacant. This was the original C:
drive. The main C: drive has XP Home on it. So, how do I go about
installing my XP Pro on here without too much hassle? If I leave the drive
assignments as they are and install XP Pro onto D: then how do I go about
removing XP Home from C:? What sequence of events is it best to follow? If
I install Pro on D: and use that as my main drive does it automatically
follow that all the subsequent programs and updates will install on D:? I
want to use D: (55 GB) as the main drive and backup information to then go
on C: (35 GB).
Basically I want to put Pro onto this newer computer as I have an older
computer that I want to move Home over to. That's a separate question.
Thanks in advance for guidance on how to proceed and remove Home and put Pro
on this system. Any help is much appreciated.
