XP Home will not overwrite XP Pro. XP Pro is considered by MicroSoft to be an "upgrade" to Home, which means you can migrate from Home to Pro but not the other way.

You will have to find the files you need on your own, or format and reinstall your OS. Posting any sort of link to those files would be illegal in the extreme, and we aren't just talking about breaking EQ's EULA.
