The XP CD wants proof that I have Windows already on the machine.
I opened a new copy of W98se and went through most of a minimum install.
Then started the XP install. XP asked for a CD that it accepts for the upgrade.
I gave it the new W98se CD but it does not accept it.
It should be enough to start the XP install.

Any thoughts to help me install XP on this brand new machine?
Thank you.

...nobody has had this problem?
