Upgrade Win2K SP4 to WinXP Pro SP1

[Bob Woolston]

I currently have Win2K SP4 on my hard drive and want to move to a new
drive. I thought about a clean install of WinXP Pro SP1 on the new
drive. Can I purchase the WinXP upgrade and install it on the new drive
even if Win 2K is not on the new drive? I have all of my original Win2K
CD's. What proof of previous systen is required to upgrade?

Yes, you can, but why in the world would you want to?

I have all of my

original Win2K CD's. What proof of previous systen is required to
upgrade?

The CD will do just fine.

You can purchase the Upgrade and do a clean install. Early
in the process you will be asked to put one of your Win2K
disks into the CD drive for verification that you have an
earlier version.
