I have inherited a computer that will be replacing my existing computer.
The
inherited computer has XP Home. The computer to be replaced has XP Pro.
How
can I replace the XP Home with XP Pro? If I insert the XP Pro disk into
the
replacement machine will it automatically upgrade or must I reformat the
hard
drive in the replacement computer?
Thanks
