Hi,
Just a quick question - is it possible to "upgrade" Windows XP Media Center edition to Professional edition? or have to re-install?
Unfortunately not. There is no upgrade path from XP MCE to XP Pro. This is actually a downgrade. It will require a clean install of XP Pro. You can use the Files and Settings Transfer Wizard to ease the migration of data and settings. Make sure you have multiple backups of the data and ways to transfer data, don't just rely on FAST. Here is a link for how to use FAST.
