Would I need and XP upgrade or the full package?
I think I'm gonna downgrade to XP to try and solve my sound problem. Plus
it'll help me sort out a few other compatability issues I've been having but now I need to know if I snould buy the home edition upgrade or the full version. Its like a hundred dollar difference.

Hi RyanH,
You can use the upgrade version providing you have a legitimate copy of an older operating system such as Win98SE. You do not need to install Win98SE in order to install this version of XP. During setup, you will be asked to insert your copy of Win98SE into your machine. After it has checked the disk, you can reinsert the XP upgrade disk and continue from there. As for your sound problem, keep checking the manufacturers website for updated drivers. If you installed Vista using an upgrade version over an existing operating system, you might like to check out my post 'Clean Install Windows Vista Using Upgrade Media' in the newsgroup 'Windows Vista Installation and Setup' for detailed instructions. A clean install might help with some of your other problems as well. Dwarf "RyanH" wrote: I think I'm gonna downgrade to XP to try and solve my sound problem.

If it's a new computer, check with the mfg. to see if they offer a downgrade
CD set. Many do. "RyanH" wrote in message ... I think I'm gonna downgrade to XP to try and solve my sound problem.
