I know this not the right forum but many more of you come here so here it goes:
I remember reading somewhere that you can upgrade(?) Win2000Pro to XP Home eventhough M!(RO$OFT says no.
Does anyone know how it's done?
Thanks,
Steve.

Boot from the XP CD, format, and install.

Why do you want to leave 2000Pro for XP home? XP is 2000 but has extra eye candy.

Sorry to say but it's just for the eye candy.
BTW I got my hands on a copy of XP Pro and all is fine.
