Problem upgrading from Win2000 Pro to XP Home

I wanted to upgrade from Windows 2000 Pro to XP Home for my home computer, so
I purchased a copy from Best Buy, but when I tried to install it, it would
not install because it said that it would not install because I had Windows
2000 Pro.

What do I need to do to upgrade? Please don't try to push Vista, because my
computer will not take it and I am not that computer savvy.

Thank you for your help.
