upgrade win 2k to win xp

Hello

I get this incompatibility message when I try to install windows xp over windows 2000. Is there really an issue? If so, do I need to wipe the disk clean, then install xp? Not a real tech dude, just enough to be dangerous (to myself). The specific message says, "windows xp setup does not support upgrading from windows 2000 professsional to windows xp". What to do??

If XP home, then you can't upgrade.
