216392 2004-02-18 05:37:00 You cannot "upgrade" from Win 2000 to XP Home. Look here (www.microsoft.com) for upgrade options. You would therefore need to install XP Home Full retail version rather than upgrade.

216394 2004-02-18 08:48:00 Yes, generally installing windows from inside another windows is not a good idea. Reboot and boot from the cd. PoWa (203)
216395 2004-02-18 09:03:00 Yea my brain came out of stand by and I put the cd in and rebooted and it worked YAY!
