When I'm installing the XP sp2 software, Part way through the instalation, I
get prompted too put in the CD-Rom, even though it's allready in my driver. I
have to keep presing cancel to get the program to continue to install. Is
this going to be a problem, and is there a way to fix this?

Are you sure it isn't asking you for the XP install disk? What is the
exact error message you get? Is this a burned copy of SP2 or one that
you ordered from Microsoft?

Are you performing a clean install or a repair install?

Did you configure your PC's BIOS to boot off the CD-ROM drive?

a) The optical drive is bad.
b) The source path in the registry is corrupt or changed.
