I need to install XP Pro on my computer. I currently have Home. Can I do this without having to reinstall all my applications etc?

If it's retail Home to Retail Pro then you will have no problems. Pro will just do the upgrade from the CD if you select that option.

If it's OEM Home to retail Pro it can get complicated.



Should you purchase an OEM license version of XP?
