Currently i have XP Home. I have just downloaded XP Prof and i was wondering how i would install XP Prof. What do i have to do. Do i click on the setup located in the XP Pro winrar file and then will it do the rest or will i have to do something else.
Cheers

Nah I dont think its the upgrade version. Its an iso file so will there be any need to clear the partions and stuff before loading a new operating system.

You burn the ISO to a cd-r by going into Nero and clicking "recorder>burn image>then point to the iso(image) file"
then insert the CD and restart the computer. go into bios and make sure the boot order includes CD/Optical drive before hard disk. Then savbe settings.
When it says "press any key to boot from cd..." press a key.
in the setup you will get the chance to format the current windows partition...you should do that. (remember to backup your stuff first.)

you know that you will lose everything that is saved on the C drive?
