Your current installation of Windows is not a supported upgrade path" I have also run the Compatibility wizard but that just seems to crash, I do not get a report or anything. Getting rather frustrated GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR |
Does a log get written anywhere when this happens?

Hello
Are you sure you don't have NT Server? You are only allowed to upgrade from the Workstation version I believe.. Steve. |

Steve. so the documentation just reads Windows NT4 This laptop is running server............. that'll probably be my problem then............ Thanks Steve Silly question time, can you 'convert' NT4 Server to Workstation? |
