boot off the winxp cd and do a clean install.

Uhh...if I'm not mistaken, the XP in beta is of XP Pro. It only upgrades NT and 2000, so you can't upgrade it from ME.

Plus, it is always better to do a clean install.

You can upgrade to XP Professional from 98, ME, NT 4.0, and 2000. You cannot, however, upgrade to Home Edition from Windows 2000.
