I just finished upgrading my XP Home Edition to XP
Professional. After the registration process I restarted
the computer and the opening flash screen still says XP
Home Ediiton. When I go 'My Computer' to view the
information, it also says XP Home Edition. Shouldn't
this show XP Professional?

Use Start> Run and type in Winver. If it still says "XP Home," you're going
to need to look at your setup a little more closely. Is it possible that XP
Pro ended up installing into a different folder (parallel install)?
