Windows XP Professional Version

I am trying to upgrade from my dell installed version of windows xp home edition to windows xp professional.  It is telling me that it doesn't recognize a hard drive.  Obviously its there because my xp home is there but it won't allow me to install the full version, wipe clean my old one and install this one.  Please help!!

    No I have several Dells, the first that I don't have XP Professional from Dell preinstalled and we are networking now and because of my work software has to be upgraded to XP Professional but I bought the full install version.  Yes I am new to the forum.
