Place the CD in the drive. When it auto runs go to Check
system compatibility then Check my system automatically.
This will scan your system and create a report telling you
where any problems with upgrading might be. Cheers
 
XP Upgrade

If you can't get updated bios for your motherboard, XP may not install.

Before you begin the upgrade process, obtain and install the latest BIOS
upgrade for your computer from the computer's manufacturer. If you update
the BIOS after you upgrade the computer, you may have to reinstall Windows
XP to take advantage of features such as Advanced Configuration and Power
Interface (ACPI) support in the BIOS. If possible, update the firmware in
all of your hardware devices before you start the upgrade.
