Hello,
I have an HP running XP Home. I need to upgrade to XP Pro for some new
applications software. After entering the key code, the system runs a
compatibility test and I get the follwoing:

********************************************************************

                Windows XP Upgrade Compatibility

********************************************************************

NVIDIA AGP filter
=================

The currently installed driver for the NVIDIA NForce device is not
compatible with this version of Microsoft Windows. Setup will not be able to
complete.

To download a new NVIDIA NForce driver, visit NVIDIA's Web site
(www.nvidia.com). Web addresses can change, so you might be unable to connect
to this Web site.

For a list of devices supported by this version of Windows, see the list of
compatible hardware on the Microsoft Web site.

HP OfficeJet
============

The following Hewlett-Packard printers, which might have been installed on
your system, might not function properly under Microsoft Windows XP using the
printer drivers that are currently installed:

HP OfficeJet G Series Printer
HP OfficeJet K Series Printer

If you uninstall this driver before upgrade, Windows XP Setup will install a
compatible driver.

To obtain a more recent version of this printer driver, visit the
manufacturer's Web site at
http://www.microsoft.com/isapi/redir.dll?prd=whistler&ar=Printing&O1=hp. Web
addresses can change, so you might be unable to connect to this Web site.

**********************************

The problem is I do not have any devices that are Ndivia. I have searched
the registry for Ndivia but I don't get any hits.

Any suggestions on how to get around this problem?

Thanks for any help
