    Is it actually going into the blue screen setup, or are you just getting a black and white screen with the choice of xp home or pro?

    If you get the latter, then you just need to right click my computer, properties, advanced, startup and recovery and there you can edit the startup menu options.

    edit the boot.ini file, and remove those entries, and change the default to be the XP home option...

    Sounds like instead of upgrading to xp pro, you installed a dual boot with both operating systems
