I have upgraded about 10 computers in my office from W98 to XP Pro with no
problems. The last one I am doing gives me an error that the upgrade cannot
find the previous version I am trying to upgrade. W98 is in the Windows
folder, so I don't understand why it can't find it. It doesn't give me a
chance to BROWSE or LOCATE files. ??????

Boot the computer into Windows 98 then insert the upgrade CD and
install it. There should be no problem.

Good luck
