First of all, note that it is not Windows XP Pro and Windows XP, there
Windows XP Pro vs Windows XP Home Edition.
 
XP Home and Professional are identical except that professional
includes a few features (primarily related to security and networking)
away from home? Most individuals need not and would never use
These extra features and will see no benefit from the upgrade.
For details, go to
 
 
 
 
Also note another point, not included in one of the foregoing:
Professional only allows ten simultaneous network connections and home
5.

    What is the difference between windows 7 pro debug/checked and simple windows 7 pro? /

    Regular accumulation is the regular version at retail of Windows because most of us use (SP1 or not).

    The build Debug/Check is specifically aimed at developers who developed to make it easier for the debugging flag
    drivers to be developed. This build runs much slower due to the abduction of optimizations and other functions.

    Hello

    I found just the note of full version with "What's new" already present in beta.

    Etore

    NuGet support is the main difference between the beta and production. Kerberos is now supported in some configurations. In addition, you don't need Oracle.ManagedDataAccessDTC.dll for applications distributed transaction if you use .NET 4.5.2 or higher.

    The rest is bug fixes and support for the latest Visual Studio 2013 updates.

  • What is the difference between Windows 8 'PRO' and 'Full Version '?

    I'm honestly confused, "what the hell". In the online store, I see both versions without any explanation of what's what. Microsoft make it easier on us?

    Full version means generally that the included DVD can be used to install Windows on a drive to empty.  Should not have an earlier version of Windows before installing this new version of Windows.

    Pro is the 'more' advanced version of Windows 8.  It will be provided more features in Windows 8, as the connection to a real Windows Server.  It would also get the 'free' Windows 8 Media Center key, which will allow you to use a tuner TV with your Windows 8.

    Hello

    Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.
    If my assumption is correct, you are looking for which file to download service pack update.
    Worry not choose files. Download the .iso to the update file, either burn it or mount or extract it and install. These files are called the symbol files. They differ in the language, for example. frequency refers to the French version. They are used to debug the Service Pack and are not really necessary unless you start to run into problems and try to find solutions on your own.

    RT

    What are the differences between RT and Win 8 Pro?

    Windows 8 - this runs on processors traditional x 86 - x 64 for Intel and AMD, and the same apps that runs on Windows 7, Vista, and Windows XP.

    Windows RT - built on the same basis as Windows 8, it works on a different processor called ARM and not running programs in Windows 7, Vista, or Windows XP. In addition, it comes with Microsoft Office 2013 while Windows 8 does not work. It only comes on the new devices, in contrast to Windows 8 you can buy a license for an existing computer.

    Hello

    I am the design of an interface card that will include two controllers GPIB (TNT5002) who will work on PCIe via PEX8112 (PCIe to PCI bridge) and have several questions on the forum:

    1. I use TNT5004 on their advice, but only offer tnt5002 purchase, what are the differences between them?
    2. Are there other relevant chips best suited to implement PCIe two interface GPIB?

    Danny

    The technical reference manual can be found here:

    I wasn't able to find reference material for this chip models. If there is, it's probably only for the GPIB to PCI.
