I am totally disabled as far as my right side is
concerned which means I cannot use amounts of any degree
of accuracy. But anyhow will XP pro work on my computer
while I have the home edition. Let me put it another
way. Will XP pro install over my home edition? What
problems than I expected? I went to the business (HP)
and they said "not recommended, you'll have issues. The
defined and issue as a conflict. Is this true? Will I
be able to run my computer without too much difficulty?
For you see I've already ordered the XP professional
edition at considerable cost which I can no longer afford.

XP pro will work fine,is home an upgrade from older win-
dows OS,if pro is full install,the old OS wont be avail-
able(no big deal).If you want clean install of pro ins-
ert pro cd,reboot or start-up with cd installed,boot to
cd,then install,to wipe out old xp,1st choose recovery,
at recovery type:FORMAT C: /FS:ntfs
When thru,type:EXIT Then let xp pro install auto.as it
will try.
