I know with Windows 98 OEM Full version, you could trick it into performing an upgrade on a previsou installation by removing the WIN.COM file, or using the /NTLDR switch (although I've not tried the latter).
Are you telling me that XP will not do this?
Murray, your response is the same line...
OK. I am trying to upgrade 98SE. It is an original full installation. Drive is FAT32 partitioned. All hardware is okay & current. All updates have been installed. I've tried by booting the CD, running setup from the CD and running setup via autorun command.
Still no dice.
Let me know if you...
I have tried several ways to get the full OEM version of Windows XP Professional (SP1) to install as an upgrade, but all I ever get is the 'New Installation' option!
Is there any way to make the full OEM version act as an upgrade??
Thanks!
Carl
