problems upgrading home to pro!!! help!!!

[Kiley]

My neighbor has a new dell laptop and tried to
upgrade from xp home to xp pro. She told me she
got a message during the install that there was
not enough memory. However it did install. Now it
takes two minutes to boot, she lost her wireless
connection, etc. Her machine is very slooooww. Any
ideas to restore her laptop up to speed? Does pro
load more services than home? and enough to slow a
machine down? Thanks much.

Tell her to format c: and do a clean install.
