xp pro suddenly apears on laptop RRS feed

  • Question

  • hello my laptop went from xp home to xp pro somehow by itself. Now windows shuts down automatically. System restore does not fix problem, I read this happened to someone else too, was there a solution. ( no one else has access to this laptop, I suspect a microsoft auto download caused this) any ideas?
