271797 2004-09-13 02:43:00 Assuming that there are advantages that make upgrading from XP Home to the Pro version worthwhile, is it possible to load XP Pro over the Home version without therefore, the necessity of a clean install ? Smurf (506)
271798 2004-09-13 02:49:00 you can BUT some ppl do have probs later.

The only diff would be security if ur hdd is formatted in NTFS. Remote desktop, better encryption I think.

Depends what advantage u mean or need, if u wanted to upgrade to Pro.

271799 2004-09-13 03:37:00 for home users XPpro is just a waste of money. MS does have a list of the differences ..somewhere. the main difference i think is support for domains, ntfs encryption (??) and a few tools. tweak'e (174)
