Repair XP Home installation with XP Pro disc?

[nell1]

Hi all,

Just a quick one. I need to perform a repair on an XP Home installation / however the only disk I have is an XP Pro. Will it still work if I use the XP Pro Disc?

Many thanks,

Neil

Thanks for the reply SImon,

I've seen those instructions before and will give it a go if I cannot do a repair with the XP Pro disc.

Cheers,

Neil
