You start to install into
the empty partition from your upgrade CD. At some point in the installation,
Windows will pause with a message that says: “This is an upgrade version and
I can’t find the prior qualifying release in your partition. Can you point me
to it?” All you need to do is to remove the WinMe CD from the reader and
place the CD from your prior version of Windows in the reader and answer with
the address of your CD reader. WinMe will then look at the CD and determine
that it is a prior release and it will then let you go on with the
installation. This lets you install directly from the CD and keeps your new
system clean of the clutter of an earlier release. When you complete the
installation, you will have one of the cleanest versions of your operating
system installed and running.
