You dont have to, but defragging before and after would be a good idea.

It doesn't hurt to defrag the disk prior to your upgrade. It should help keep things in a logical order. But its not required.

no... just place the disc in the drive and let it do the work... it will work on top of windows ME files... some of which are needed for the upgrade
