    So I have windows xp pro but there is one thing that doesn't work, the system restore. Yes it is enabled and blah blah. Anywho, my question is: can I do an upgrade repair using my windows xp home cd, on my pro o/s? I'm not using the pro cd cause something is wrong with it.

    Or....

    Is there an alternate way to fix system restore? also, I have all the windows updates, driver updates and so on...just in case you ask.

    Have you tried to create a restore point?

    Also, you can't use your XP Home CD for a Pro repair.

    These are very different operating systems.
