Rep Power: 23 | Bad news you can not upgrade from windows 98 to windows xp pro! You have to buy the full XP Pro Full at the price I beleive $500.00 Canadian! You can only upgrade windows 98 to xp home! The current helios will not work with XP Home! Helios needs to make sure helios works will all windows versions. We don't need to be forced to buy the most expensive windows version to be able to use Helios! If helios will not work on xp home as well as pro it is going to cost a ton of money to buy the right OS. What is others opinions? Helios for all windows users or forced to upgarde to the most expensive windows version. Helios needs to let us know. Do salons owners want to spend money or save money? _________________ TanTalk Tanning Booth MODERATOR Tanning Booths, for people that want only the very best.

Rep Power: 23 | I want to save. I called Helios about the new upgrade that is coming out. They said in about 60 days. It will run with XP. Sorry but I am a little stupid when it comes to all this computer stuff and do not know what I should be using when we get the new upgrade. How much memory etc. Do I need to buy a new XP or is there a special one I need. Can you let me know. |
