Xp Pro -> Corp

[Storm]

rite now i have Win XP Pro (dutch version) and want 2 upgrade 2 XP Pro Corp (English version), cause the first version isnt corp and i have 2 validate it and all that shit (y does MS make it so hard 2 steal their software, were gonna do it newayz ), but my question kinda is:

Is it hard 2 do, can i just install over it, say upgrade, or do i have 2 do a clean reinstall????

not sure, but it would probably mess up.

I recommend you Backup your important files and "Clean Install" XP Pro Corp.

There's a user state migration tool in one of the folders. Either in the old XP or in the Corp install. I believe you can copy it and run it on your existing system to copy all settings to a floppy or something.

Just search microsoft's knowledge base for "user state migration tool"

What's the difference between pro and corporate?

...I know there is a corporate pack where you can just copy the files in the archive over the files on the cd and burn a new copy. I don't know where to get it or if it will work for other languages
