I had Windows XP Home, and tried Media Center but don't like it, and want to go back to XP Home. How do I do this? Thanks.

How did you switch from Home to MCE in the first place?

Did you do an over-the-top upgrade install? If so there's no easy way to go back.

One presumes you have the original XP Home install CD?

Back up your important data and do a format/reinstall
