Christy,
No upgrade version will work. you must first show you have a full version of
Windows of some kind before you can install an upgrade. You don't have to
install the older version, just let Windows look at the disk and put your
key number in, but it has to be a full version.

Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- installing windows XP Pro upgrade
HI, I have a question about upgrading/installing windows xp pro. I now
have xp home on the computer and own a "restore disk" that came with the
system. I am wanting to totally take xp home off my system as well as
everything else. I then would like to install xp pro without having to use
my xp home restore disk. Is that possible since it is an upgrade.
If it is not, I have an old win 98 upgrade disk that I used to upgrade from
win95. Would it work to load the 98 upgrade disk and then the xp pro
upgrade.
thanks,
christy
