Guest Jeff Powers Posted October 2, 2007 Posted October 2, 2007 I believe that I upgraded from XP home to XP Professional on a system here at work. But I can't see evidence of that. Could this still have happened and have evidence of home still floating around on the system? Plus I'm having connection issues to that computer. I put the upgrad CD in and it said that I have allready upgraded to latest version. Could you help? Jeff

Guest Jeff Powers Posted October 2, 2007 Posted October 2, 2007 Re: Upgraded from XP Home to XP Pro? Yes and it tells me that is is indeed XP Home. So that is what it is?

It would appear to be but try going into Safe Mode and see what it says after you choose Safe Mode from the list. -- Alias To email me, remove shoes
Guest Porkchop Posted October 2, 2007 Posted October 2, 2007 Re: Upgraded from XP Home to XP Pro? I went to safe mode, still says XP Home.When I put the Cd it tells me that I have a version newer then that of the CD, could that be because service pack 2 is installed?

Guest Bob I Posted October 2, 2007 Posted October 2, 2007 Re: Upgraded from XP Home to XP Pro? It sounds like you have XP Home with SP2 installed on the PC and you have an XP Pro CD without SP2 in hand. You may either "Slipstream" SP2 onto the Pro CD and go from there, or "uninstall" SP2 from the Home installation and go from that point.
