I'm not exactly sure how to go about installing Windows XP directly from the CD onto a fresh format. I normally just installed Windows 98SE and upgraded from there. The reason for that is, because everytime I tried to run "setup" from DOS from the Windows XP Pro CD, it said "cannot be run in DOS mode."
Anyone know how to install Windows XP Pro directly onto a fresh format/new hard drive? I'd rather not have to go through with installing Windows 98SE again and again. Plus, since the computer I'm going to build my friend is so new, I'd rather just install Windows XP onto the new 250GB hard drive.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! :thumb:
