hi

it could be that your machine now does not have SP2

service pack 2 which you can download from microsoft its very large file best if you can borrow a copy from someone also it wont install on a pirate copy of windows

go back to xp pro if you can

i say this because i had a dell machine that would blue screen after a reinstall of windows xp pro would only work in safe mode

this turned out to be the fact that my copy of xp pro was before sp2 and the machine would blue screen if sp2 was not there installed sp2 and hey presto all ok so seeing you may have had a more recent version of xp pro before changing to home this may apply to you
