    I assumed that by 'converting' you implied upgrading. I can never understand why users want their OS to look like another - far better to upgrade to that OS.

    However I will move your thread back to the XP forum with further title edit.
    Support for Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) and Windows 2000 ended on July 13, 2010. This means that security updates will no longer be offered for these platforms. You should install SP3 immediately.

    Peter some people just like how Windows Pro or Home works but they dislike how they appeal to them so that is why

    My best suggestion is to make a Repair install of XP for which you will need a retail XP CD at the same Service Pack level as the installed OS - in your case SP2.

    If you do not have one, but your CD is retail you can slipstream SP2 into an earlier install CD ....

    Slipstreaming Windows XP Service Pack 2 and Create Bootable CD

    Alternatively you can make a Repair install using another CD using your own product key.
