install but i like the old xp pro better then the new home edition
that came instold with the new cp .thank you
Ted Zieglar said:You will see that message if you upgraded XP Home to Service Pack 1 or 2 and
the version of XP Pro you want to install does not have that service pack.
The solution is to uninstall the service pack, upgrade to XP Pro, then
reinstall the service pack (along with all other critical updates.)

Bruce Chambers said:This means that your installed OS is at a higher service pack level
than is the WinXP Pro CD you're using. You'll either need to uninstall
SP2 before attempting the upgrade, or try slipstreaming SP2 into the
upgrade.
