Randy

Ok, I put XP Home on my sons computer and now I need to install SP 1 and 2
but you can't use the update page without having SP1 installed so what do I
do now? Thanks for any help

Weren't the CDs supposed to be widely distributed, for example, through places like Staples or CompUSA?

ROTFLMAO.. how many scratches does yours have?.. mine is almost perfect..
and the directive from MS was to pass it on to friends, not sell shares in
it.. profiteering in the wake of Ye Great Lousiana Floode is a despicable
thing to do.. psssstttt, wanna buy some decent high grade gas?.. we have
more than enough up here.. :)

Somehow I ended up with two CDs. Neither have been used. I downloaded some
kind of IT professional version of SP2 and installed that. That's also the
one that I uninstalled.

Perfect condition and in original sleeves, eh. You should be very careful
that you are not 'rolled' for those CDs. Be very wary of people wearing
T-shirts inscribed with the words "Dialup Works For Me".. :)
