Jerden -
My gut on this one is Jonathan is right - 99 out of 100 times you're not going to encounter a problem. The part of me that constantly tells my sons to "take time, NOT chances" would ask more questions.
Mainly - what GP components are installed on this machine?
Additionally, what is your "fall back strategy" should something go wrong. If I were you, at a minimum, I would want to have a verified disaster recovery plan prior to pulling the trigger on this.
I personally would convert it to a Virtual Machine (this is a copy process, not a true conversion) and ensure I can start the VM on another device, prior to attempting this upgrade.
Hi Jerden,
I have had many people do this and they have experienced no problems. I personally had an issue with upgrading the OS on one of my internal machines but that is not to say you are going to run into that issue.
