Ok here is the background details:
1. Upgrading form XP home to XP pro
2. At 34 minutes into the setup an error box pops up and
says that the file intel(R) extreme graphics windows
2000/XP installation disc is needed.
3. It asks for the path to the file.

So then it gives me three options:
1. C:
2. C:\windows\options\cabs....
3. D:

None of these work.

So what do I do? I have no idea what this file is and why
it is not included in my setup CD.
 
The file in question is third party. It did not
come "inbox" meaning the driver for your video card did
not come preshipped on the XP cd.
At this point, just say no to the prompt and then install
the driver for your graphics card/controller once your
actually into Windows. IF your video is integrated go to
your mother board manufacturer's website for a possible
Windows XP driver download for your video.
