This may be a stupid question ... but can I use this to UPGRADE my current Windows XP install ???

Mine has been giving me problems as of late - but I don't want to wipe out everything I have on my system hard drives.



Thanks !!!

do i have to change the file to ISO and make it bootable
You have to do nothing just burn the image file into a blank CD.

Hi, I just downloaded the Aug 2012 ISO and was just wondering if I could add in driverpacks using DriverBASE and then Direct Burn as a bootable ISO using nLite?
you can do what you want if you know how to.. :D

You need to install your PC's drivers for sound, graphic and LAN from the CD that came with it, because they are not integrated in the XP release.

If you don't have it, you can download DriverPack Solution from Here .
It'll search for the uninstalled drivers on your PC and install them.

P.S:  Its size 3GB.
