My laptop came with XP Home Edition and I have installed XP Professional SP3, how remove XP Home and keep my files?
I have two operating systems on my laptop and really only want one, how to uninstall XP Home Edition and still retain my files to move them to XP Professional that I have already installed.
I installed the XP Pro SP3 because I had problems with XP Home and I understand that XP Pro is an operating system much better. Help, please
You can modify the boot.ini file to remove the unwanted entry

Depends on what files you want to move, you can move the data, but you cannot move the programs, they will have to be resettled.
For data, you will need to be supported, see victory help
Once you have transferred all the data just delete the folder of windows redundent

Hello
You will be able to install Windows Xp on your computer, but you will need to perform a clean installation.
Before installing Windows XP. And also, you will have to take up the data in your computer, because the new facility will remove all data into the computer.
Download the driver from the support of dell at the following link:
I would also like to inform you that there is now the operating system disks or support is available for Windows XP.
For reference, see the following Microsoft.

If my laptop came with Vista installed on it, but it crashed and I currently have installed linux, can I still switch to 7 for $30?
original title: moving from Linux to 7Hello
Unfortunately, you cannot switch from Linux to windows operating system 7, but you can upgrade from Windows vista to Windows 7.
Because you are unable to upgrade Linux, I suggest you perform a custom installation of Windows 7.

I want to re install with a clean sheet. I have install, but my old catalog loads again. How do I delete catalog and where it is stored. I lost some of the media that came with my drive by accident so I need to re install
HI ATR
Just update you 13 windows 7 items... I sat until midnight and found the program data and ended up finding the catalog. I deleted the catalog now. and uninstalled items 13. I hope that when I reinstall it will be like new, and I can go back again. I had messed up I saw when viewing the photos in the media, it was media files and thought they shouldn't be there so I deleted them. Maybe thinking about now I get an error. Before, I made a slideshow with the media from the drive. I just started using elements 13 I used windows live previously for videos. Can you let me know also what photoshop elements or first, you use the most. Also if I import video files in why do I see them I think of thumbnails. That's where I went wrong and thinking, they shouldn't be here. I brought a few books and trying to go through the learning process. What camera do you use? Many questions sorry. Thanks for any help.

In the Photos of El Capitan how to record a double published in a separate with its own name and the ID file file?
Only by exporting - with Photos (and iPhoto and Aperture) - you can have several versions of an image by duplicating the image (control - D), but this does not create an image file separated until you export - it creates a separate edit list in the database that applies to the original when you watch or export the photos
Photos as it were its predecessors is a non-destructive control Digital Asset Manager (DAM) which does not any changes to files in the database but built a list of validation

I can't install my AD018640672 order number because you ask for the previous issue. Adobe came with my computer I don't have that. Can you help me!
We could certainly help you.
If she asks for the previous version number, then you could acquire a version upgrade.
You must purchase the full Acrobat version so that it can be installed and activated with the serial key.
Hope that helps.
