Downgrading from Enterprise to Standard

Hi
Does anyone know how to go from SQL Server 2000 Enterprise to Standard and restore all of the databases? I've tried restoring the Mater Database, but I am getting the following
The backup of the system database on device XXXX cannot be restored because it was created by a different version of the server (134217546) than this server (134217488)
KB article 264474 shows how to get a server back to the version level, if the flavor of SQL Server is the same [i.e. Enterprise] but not if the server is being downgraded from Enterprise to Standard for licensing reasons
Thanks
ChrisChris,
This appears to be backup / restore that is the problem.
You should be able to detach the databases from the SS2KEE server and then
attach them to the SS2KSt server. Check this article (from the BOL) on
Attaching and Detaching Databases. The file formats are the same.

implies.
