XP Pro Upgrade Q

Can you upgrade to Pro from Home without doing a full install??

It's not really a matter of "can", but more a matter of "would". I wouldn't. A fresh install is always best and you will have beter performance and less downtime in the long run.

ive always found you can get the same result with a system checkup and general cleaning.
