I need to reformat a computer with XP Home and reinstall Windows 2000 Pro. Can someone tell me how to do this? Thanks!

If you are going to reinstall Windows 2000 Pro, why not just boot off the Windows 2000 Pro CD and do the format from there?

As tfg13 says thats probably the easiest way...you could also bootup on an old dos disk and fdisk your drive....but the windows installer will let you do it.
