2 copies of XP. How did I remove one?
 

Yup, as the title says.

I've just installed Professional but it never fully reformatted and went over Home like I selected. How can I remove Professional? Also, Professional won't allow me to change the screen resolution so it's huge!

needs graphics driver. Home would have been moved to a folder like windows.old if you used the same partition . Restoring Home would not be possible afaik. I would make sure you get all the drivers installed for your machine

Backup everything you need, then its a reformat & reload jobby by the sound of it :(

Reformat is the option I picked, yet it just added another OS onto it...

Did you boot off the CD?

Re: 2 copies of XP. How did I remove one?
 

Well the way to sort that is when u boot from the CD, choose format drive, or failing that, delete the whole partition and start from scratch!

It does work, however, I have never heard of Windows XP adding another OS AFTER formatting a drive :confused:
