Default TO INSTALL WINDOWS 7 PRO SHOULD I UNINSTALL HOME ED

Bought new computer with windows 7 home. product key doesnt work. try it
several times. Now trying to upgrade to the pro version. Do I have to
uninstall the home version first?

Since windows 7 home doesnt read any of my xp files guess I have to convert.

Wrong newsgroup. This newsgroup is for Office related issues. For Win 7 you will
need to post to the Win 7 forums

The version of windows has nothing to do with reading office? xp files
Unless you paid extra for Office the preinstalled version its a trial
version.

Whoa - Windows 7 is an operating system, not an application. What are your
"XP files"? I have a feeling you may be about to make a big mistake.
