Windows xp set up on new hard drive

Guest

My old system had windows 98 and I upgraded to XP. I am installing a new hard
drive. When I try to load XP it wants me insert my windows 98 Cd to verify
the upgrade. I don't have the windows 98 CD anymore that came with my DELL.
Is there any way to load XP on the new hard drive w/o having the 98CD for
verification?

thanks ,John

workaround...........clone the old hard drive to the new hard drive.
The HD manufacturers website usually has a tool for that purpose.
