I recently purchased a copy Win XP Pro Upgrade (it says it contains Service
Pack 2) to install over my OEM copy of Win XP Home (also updated with Service
Pack 2) supplied with my two year old Dell Dimension 8250. I was unable to
run the Upgrade Adviser because it said my Home version was newer than the
Adviser. I have seen numerous posts about this problem. Shouln't I be able to
install the newer SP2 version of the XP Pro Upgrade without uninstalling
Service Pack 2 and/or making a slipstream CD?
