Hi, I was trying out something on Win2K3. Somehow i got an idea to upgrade to Win2K3 from WinXP. But when i started the upgradation, i got an error popping out displaying "Upgrade is not supported".

Why it can not be upgraded?

I went in to a garage and asked if my car could be upgraded to a Ferrari. They said sure...it would cost but I would need a new car.

I asked why can't I just upgrade the car I have and just throw the Ferrari engine in (my car).

Why can't I throw the Ferrari engine in my car?
