I just bought a new pc abt a month ago. It is a Compaq with all the bells and whistles:) Model#SR2038X. I was supposed to get a free upgrade to Vista Premium via a website from Microsoft. Every time I go to upgrade it always says that there is some unrecoverable error and try again later. Well the problem when u try again later is that your certificate of authenticity is not valid bcoz the system already thinks u got your upgrade. I have had the info reset 2x by someone who is customer service for the site. Anyone else having these troubles too?

Any problems with upgrading from Windows XP Home to XP Pro?

I am trying to decide whether to get a Laptop (specifically an HP Laptop) installed with Windows XP Pro (more expensive and more complicated) or with Windows XP Home (less expensive and easier) then upgrading to XP Pro. Are there any problems with upgrading from XP Home to XP Pro generally and specifically on an HP Laptop? Are there any deficiencies or disadvantages (other then cost) with upgrading from XP Home to XP Pro as opposed to installing XP Pro from the beginning?
Most Laptops (HP included) available in stores come pre-installed with Windows XP Home. So, one question is whether to go with one of these units and upgrade to Windows XP Pro, or is it better to say go to the HP website and get a unit with XP Pro pre-installed. Which choice is better and why is it better?
