Hi Ray, you should most certainly be able to upgrade from XP Home to Pro independently. One question. Do you have a floppy drive on your computer or will you be using your hdd along with your XP CD? Let me know if you want me to walk you through the installation via telephone at some point or just want written instructions.

Hello All: I'm taking an Advanced Internet Applications class at DePaul University in Chicago. One requirement for the class, if I want to do programming assignments on my home computer is that I upgrade my computer to Windows XP Professional so I can use SQL Server 2000 and Visual Studio 2005. I can get XP Pro free from DePaul. I'm a Window-Eyes user and I will be contacting GW Micro to make sure I have a version of WE which can run on XP Pro. What I'd like to know is can I set up an unattended installation or in some other way, independently upgrade my XP home machine to XP Pro? If so, does anyone have advice on how to do it?
