I have a full version of xp, I formatted a brand new drive.
I usually work with w98, boot off and disk, load the win98 dir to c drive and run setup from it.
When I tried to run setup off the xp cd, it said it was not a dos based program.
Is there a dir to copy to c:, like win98 or do I run something from the cd in dos??
I put the cd into a win 98 se machine and it asked if I wanted to upgrade it to xp and looked as though it would have done it??
Do I have to install another os first and then install xp, I have the full version of xp pro, not an upgrade or does it matter??
Confused!!
