Will XP Pro install over 98SE without failure or problems? I have not
seen any prior results on this forum. Athelon? chip and 770Mhz
machine.

Thanks,

Jerry
 
Generally yes, it will. However, you should run the Upgrade Advisor from the
XP CD before actually performing the upgrade. This will tell you whether or
not your hardware/software is compatible with XP. Then make sure you check
out Gary Woodruff's article on the Files and Settings Transfer Wizard,
http://www.aumha.org/win5/a/fast.htm. And last but not least, backup
anything you can't afford to lose.
