Windows XP Home Edition with SP2

by stallionuni . Updated 20 years, 8 months ago

I have installed MS-Windows XP Home Edition with SP2 as an integrated part of the installaion, now I want to install MS-Windows XP Professional because I need to be part of the domain network we have at work and when I executet the WINNT32.EXE file I get a message that says that I have a newer version of windows and I cannot proceed any further; I think this is because I have SP2. The problem is that I cannot uninstall it because when I went to Add or Remove Programs Windows Service Pack 2 is not listed down there and I think that’s because SP2 was installed along Windows cause it was (SP2) intergrated in the Windows CD.

So is there a way/workaround that I can Upgrade my XP Home Edition Ver to XP Pro Ver. Can I for example disable something from the Regisry or is there a tool that allows me to Uninstall the Service Pack from within XP Home Edition.

Thank you,
