    My Dell computer came with WIN XP Home and a reinstall CD. Later I upgraded
    to Pro.

    Now I want to go back and reinstall XP Home from the Dell system reinstall
    CD. But I get an error message saying I can't do that because the XP version
    on my computer is newer than the one on the CD.

    How can I over ride that?

    Never minds- got it. Just reset the boot order and boot from the CD-ROM.
