Question [Answered] I upgraded from 2000 to XP Pro SP2, I think I messed it up lol

Ok so now my new problem is that... well its not really MUCH of a problem, but Im not used to it, so I got me a new computer that came installed with Win2000, and then i decided to upgrade it to XP, ok, so I think that XP's usual Windows directory is usually called C:\WINDOWS, ok well now that I upgraded it, it comes out like C:\WINNT instead, is there a way that I can change the name of this folder? Thank you.

You might try the Restore Point. Go back to before the upgrade, then do the upgrade again this time being more careful with the choices you make.

Boot off of your XP Install CD. See if there is an option to uninstall the XP back to the 2000 version. It will depend on the options you selected when you did the upgrade.
