Hey i just got windows xp pro sp2 and i want to upgrade from my home sp1...i have a compaq so i used its restore disc to reformat..but it still installs home...how do i delete home and put in pro?
do you get that first screen in the link i posted where it says booting to cd and then the blue screen that starts loading stuff? i wanna make sure you are doing this right do you get that screen?
The first step is to boot off the XP PRO CD then from there you can format your C drive. Do you have more than one CD-ROM drive? When your in home and insert the XP PRO CD does it prompt you with the XP PRO splash screen?
