I just got a new machine that has XP Home pre-loaded. I'd like Pro Corp, however. Is the difference just the key? I mean, can I just change the activation key and it will automatically be Pro Corp (I know how to change keys..)? OR, do I have to do a full install (i.e. format and reinstall windows from scratch)?
Thanks

You can't just change the key. You have to either upgrade or reinstall.

Your best bet is to do a fresh instal. Why do you want the Pro/Corp edition?
