Freakin A'!
Best suggestion ive found yet nice program.
I knew it was just a matter of time until people started to make the
programs to convert XP Home to Pro, this is the first step i would take.
Do you know of any more programs (as that site is in danish i think), that
do this kind of thing, add things that are "only available" (not hidden) in
XP Pro?
Thanks again you just helped a small company IT guy stop screwing around and
going into safe mode to administrate 50 xp home computers on a network that
the company built.
