I am currently runnig XP Pro (SP1) and want to revert
back to XP Home. I have both cds. I have tried to follow
the directions in Microsoft Knowledge Base Article
283236, where by I perform a NEW INSTALLATION on a
separate partition, but when trying to install from the
cd it doesn't even offer me the option of "new
installation." Rather, it just defaults to trying to
update XP Pro to XP Home, which it can't do.

Help!
