Hi. I have a HP Pavilion DV6500 with Vista. Yesterday i bought windows pro, downloaded and wrote it on dvd. I begun the installation (upgrade), but at the 56%, it stopped and said that the installation failed. I tried it 2 times so far with the same results. I would appreciate some help.

Great. And you are very welcome. Note that I said some of the things other had already said. I guess I just did a little helpful elaboration though.
