Upgrade XP Home to XP Pro - can I?

I want to upgrade my sisters DELL XP Home to XP Pro. I have a full XP Pro installation disk (not an upgrade - but full installation).

I was planning on cloning off her current to a new partition (hidden), and then upgrade the current XP Home.

Can I do this?

I'm pretty sure this will BREAK the connection for Dell OEM systems if I just install the PRO on a new partition, or overwrite the current. I really don't want to have to go thru re-installing all drivers and settings.
