How you do it, depends on how you want to do it.

Do you want a dual boot, or a clean installation of Media Center?

Again, what "program"? Media Center has a different user interface (menu screen), but it's based entirely on XP Pro. It has better support for Plug n Play devices, driver support, and support for streaming video/music, recording....etc.

I still don't know exactly what you want from MC to put on Home.
