M Michael Solomon \(MS-MVP Windows Shell/User\) Aug 28, 2003 #2 If Windows 98 came preinstalled on your system as opposed to your having purchased Windows 98 separately, this is an OEM setup and sometimes these cannot be upgraded.

D Doug Knox MS-MVP Aug 28, 2003 #3 Is your copy of XP an OEM version? If so, it won't upgrade. OEM versions are designed for new installs on new computers (or a blank hard disk).
