Hey I got the 2475 build and for some reason its messing with my system?? Right now Im running windows ME with a geforce3 and an sblive and other people seem to use them fine so im guessing its not a hardware issue.
Hey I got the 2475 build and for some reason its messing with my system?? Right now Im running windows ME with a geforce3 and an sblive and other people seem to use them fine so im guessing its not a hardware issue. If I try to install from windows, it pauses when it says processing upgrade report on the left hand side of the screen. If i try it from boot it say some inf txtsetup thing is missing and it cant proceed. Funny thing is when I first made the cd i tried it by boot and it said something about partitions and I wanted it install over ME so quit that and went into me and it did the freezing thing. Now I was going to just erase ME and along with everything else on the drive (cept for one folder), but if the boot process gives me that error I dont want to delete ME until Im sure I can do the boot process. Someone help me please!

You can't install XP Pro over Windows ME. Should read some FAQs 1st. The only way to install XP pro in upgrade mode is over a existing NT install or a 9x install. No ME installs are excepted as an upgrade path to pro (probably because it would make XP unstable LOL). Of course you can format the partition and then you can install it clean. 8)
Ive upgraded to XP from WinMe 6 times now. ;(
I got it working from the boot....just an iffy installation thats all....thanks for anyone that replied!
