I tried to upgrade my daughter's HP Pavillion laptop OS
from XP Home to XP Pro (this is a requirement at her
college). The installation hung with the error
message "Setup failed to install the product catalogs.
This is a fatal error". The setup log file also has
error messages about failure to remove product catalog
IEEXCEP.CAT, failure to remove product catalog SP1.CAT,
that the signature for Windows XP Professional Upgrade is
invalid, error code 426. Rebooting resumes installation
and the same set of error messages again appear. I am
well and truly stuck here. All help is greatly
appreciated.
