Two options:

Insert XP HOME to cdrom drive, reset your computer. reinstall the new edition over the current as a repair or something.

2-recommended
insert xp home edition to your cd drive, restart your computer and format the partition who has the current version of XP.

good luck...

Unfortunately, you can only convert from XP pro to XP home by backing up your data, formating the hard drive and installing home. You can not install home "over" pro.
