trying to upgrade from XP home to Pro
I have a Toshiba sattelite A70 3.06ghz 1048mb ram 80gb HD

Just trying to upgrade to Pro, i went into the bios and changed to boot sequence. Installed the disc, but it just keeps booting up normally to xp home. I tried this 2 times(going into bios) any suggestions on how i get my machine to boot from CD.

Also now my machine keeps rebooting after a few minutes

You can upgrade from home to Pro with out booting from disk.

Let the Pro disk auto start and click on install....it will then recommend the upgrade.

No sure what you mean about the booting up
