Happy Holidays to all,
I plan on upgrading my OS from 98SE to XP (a clean install from the
"upgrade" software") after the holidays, but have run into what I think is a
snag... From what I've read, during the XP setup process, I will need to
insert "qualifying media" (my 98SE CD) to prove that I have a previous
version of Windows. Is this true, or will the setup software detect that I
already have a previous version installed and bypass this step? The problem
is that I can't find the 98SE CD. If I do need it, do you know of a way to
bypass this step? I have a "Resource CD"... is that what I need? Can I get a
copy of what I need from Microsoft? Thanks so much for any advice you might
have!
