I have oem 98se on my computer. I am thinking about
installing xp home edition upgrade and also changing HD.
Can I install upgrade copy of xp on a new harddrive or
will I have to have 98 on drive to be able to install?
Thanks
 
hey kevin,

You can install windows xp upgrade on an earlier version
of widnows like 98se but you can't install it on an empty
hard drive because your upgrade cd doesn't have all the
files to install xp it needs to upgrade your existing
files to windows xp files that's why it called upgrade.
You will need a full version cd to install windows xp on
an empty hard drive but I think it's fine to upgrade to
xp.
