upgrade time. After upgrade, pc encouter slow performance and file

Only a "Retail Upgrade" or "Retail Full" (boxed versions)
of Windows XP Professional can upgrade over
an existing Windows XP Home Edition installation.

It appears you acquired an "OEM Version" which
may only be used to perform a "Clean Install" and
not an upgrade.

In order to solve your problem, perform a "clean install"
of Windows XP Pro.
