Install Licensed Version 2003 after trying Eval Edition 2003

[Ol' MSCS Hack]

After using the eval 2003 edition the Boss decided to purchase a CD
version(product key and everything, I have it and am wondering if the
best way is to uninstall the eval 2003 edition and then install from the CD?
or can i install over the eval edition and not get any time expired cut offs?
have XP sp2. Thanks

As I recall MS recommends you uninstall the eval version before installing
the retail edition. It only takes a couple of mouse clicks and a minute or
so of time to do so why not be safe? <g>

I agree with Steve. Maybe it is not absolutely necessary, but the potential
consequence of not being superstitious here outweighs the small effort
required.
