I Need Help Installing XP Pro Corporate.
I need help on installing XP Pro Corporate I got from Torrentspy. I downloaded the torrent file and once I open it there is a lot of other folders that have software and on folder with the keygen. Also there is a Setup.exe file should I just open that and install it throuh that or should I burn the whole file and boot it and then install it. And how do I install it so that I don't loose the files that I have on my computer right now. I have Windows XP Home Edition SP2.

You don't want to do a clean install ? This is not recomened but you could do a upgrade install from windows . Thats if you really have a corp. version of win xp pro. That way you save your folders and settings . I would make a windows bootable cd for any trouble you have later. :)

Your right ,what I mean is "after" the cd is burnt put in the cd tray and pick upgrade install. :)
Re: I Need Help Installing XP Pro Corporate.
So I should just make and image and then just do a clean install instead of upgrading it?
How do I format my HD?

You'll loose all files and settings but a better way . With a clean install you boot from cdrom and your on your way. Just remember to back up drivers, pictures or e-mail addies that sort of thing. Its easy.

How do I back up the drivers and other stuff you mentioned? Should I just burn the stuff to a cd or something?

Yep to a cd . You can always get them of the net ,but can be a pain in the ass.
Re: I Need Help Installing XP Pro Corporate.
So Where do I find these drivers on my computer, and as far as I know I've only downloaded drivers for my WebCam and Graphics Card. So Should I just not worry about that?
Re: I Need Help Installing XP Pro Corporate.
if thats the case, those can be updated after theinstall. just make sure your not missing anything. carefuully check so you have what you need .
