I am considering upgrading from Windows ME to XP Pro but
would like to do a clean install...backup my data, format
the hard drive, and install XP Pro. I understand that a
clean install is the easiest installation option and will
help assure that my computer operates efficiently in the
future. (I've run the Upgrade Advisor so I'm aware of a
few incompatible programs, etc.).
I have my original Windows ME CD ROM that came with my
Dell system.
Does the retail upgrade version of XP Pro require the
Windows ME be actually installed on the hard drive or can
I insert the Windows ME CD ROM at the appropriate time
when the setup program searches for a prior version of
Windows?
Any help on this question would be appreciated.
