Wife installed a full version of Windows XP Pro on her
Sony, Pentium 3, notebook which was running Windows ME.
Now it is running both. She has to choose which one she
wants to use everytime it boots. She wants to run
everything under XP Pro. Can she remove Windows ME
without losing the programs and data that are running
under it?
If so - how?
If not, can she reinstall XP Pro in a way that will
preserve the ME data?
 Thank you

 An e-mail reply would be very much appreciated. I am new
to this posting system. I am not sure how I will know if I
get a response.
Thank you again.
