– Do not need remote corporate network access

– And do not require extra security

• For single CPU systems enhancements:

– Includes improved software and hardware compatibility

– Simplified security

– Fast user switching

– Enhanced multimedia

7.1.2 Windows XP Professional• Includes everything that Home Edition

provides plus

• Network (LAN) support is included

transfer of the data:– Direct cable connection– Network connection– Removable media (floppy, zip disk, or CD-RW)– Removable drive or network drive

7.2.1 Differences between Windows 2000/9x installation and XP Files and Settings Wizard

Note: The User State Migration Tool works like the Files and Settings Wizard, but for migrating numbers of users in a mass network installation

7.2.2 Hardware requirements

Installation steps

(See next slide for details)

Installation steps

• File copy phase: Setup files are copied to a bootable partition (not needed for CD-bootable machines).

• Text mode setup phase: For a clean install, create and format a partition to be used by the OS. Computer is rebooted.

• GUI mode setup phase: Enough software is in place that a convenient GUI can guide the person through the other steps, such as regional settings and computer name.

7.4.2 Upgrading Windows 98 to Windows XP Professional

7.4.3 Dual boot Windows 9x, Windows NT 4, Windows 2000, and Windows XP

• The concept can be extended to three or more OS

• Example, 98/XP booting: Do fresh install of Windows 98 before installing Windows XP. This will allow XP’s boot loader to notice and include Windows 98 as an OS in its boot menu

• For the above example, use FAT32 for both, so you can share files (Windows 98 cannot read NTFS)

• For Linux with XP, you could use either OS’s boot loader. The OS installed second will use its boot loader

• To run an app, it must be installed in the OS you are running
