I installed windows xp home edition to my computer. I was originally running
windows 2000, but kept having inssues with it, so anyway installed xp. I
thought when I installed xp it would give me the choice to remove windows
2000,but it did not. Both xp and 2000 are on c drive. Help
 
This probably isnt the answer you want, but..

If you can backup/copy any saved information you want to keep to CD's,
thumbdrives, and/or external harddrive then format and reinstall. This is
going to give you a clean install, which will normally give you less
problems and better performance.

If you go this route do not forget..
Export your internet explorer favorites
Backup/export your e-mails/contacts etc.
Copy any files that you have saved to the Hard drive and want to keep
Usually you are fairly safe if you copy the c:\documents and
settings\yourusername problem with doing this is this folder can get quite
large.
