Hi,
Windows ME came installed on my year old Compaq PC. I immediately installed Win2000 on it for obvious reasons. I subsequently purchased the WinXP Home upgrade through Compaq. As you know, we no longer get OS CDs but restore CDs with our PCs. I'd like to 3 boot Win XP Home with Win2000 and my Mandrake Linux installation.
Is there a way or bypass that will allow me to install WinXP Home with Windows 2000 instead of me having to find a 98 or ME CD ? (Assuming it will ask for the CD.)
Remember, I own this software, and have Win2000 on only one PC.
I'm just trying to prevent a lot of leg work!!
Thanks for your time,
Steve
