Im not exactly sure what u mean by"Not doing anything" but i just changed from ME to XP there last weekend.I got my upgrade cd from dell. N.B. it is NOT a bootable cd, u MUST install it through ME. It gives you two options- quick and new installation, quick keeps all your files and settings and litterally upgrades u to XP os, while new deletes everything and starts you from scratch. Well thats what it says anyway, i found that it left my files though to access them i had to reinstall the programs associated. My advice, back up everything, EVERYTHING, reformat ur computer, install ME, do quick install for XP.Ur computewr will run like new
