Trouble setting up Windows Home Edition

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry



I was having trouble setting up Windows Home Edition as it kept hanging up
at 'Setup cannot copy driver.cab' I carried on without it but it would set
up.

I tried Windows Pro, and that has worked fine. It did stall at Cannot copy
Driver.cab, but on retry went through fine.

However I don't really want XP Pro, as I have given up with it in the past
do to not being able to get my home network working with its overly
complicated settings for my use.

Now I'm up and running with Pro can I edit the HE files (e.g. copy
Driver.cab). I have tried this unsuccessfully so far. Also which of the two
sets of the systems files are which? How can I tell the difference?
