I need a link or info to a step-by-step "clean" installation of XP Pro.
Im currently running XP Home. I've Googled everywhere and cannot seem
to find a "true" step-by-step guide.

Thanks in advance,
Nylo

It's the same as installing He to begin with. But since you're currently
running HE, why do you want to install Pro and what makes you think it must
be a clean install?

Greetings --

Simply boot from the WinXP installation CD. You'll be offered the
opportunity to delete, create, and format partitions as part of the
installation process. (You may need to re-arrange the
order of boot devices in the PC's BIOS to boot from the CD.)
