    thanks for that. the setup starts working fine but then it says 'cannot read CD. Insert one of the following CDs to verify that you are allowed to use this CD: Windows XP HOME (full version)
    Windows XP Proffesional (full version)

    I put in the Home CD but it says the same again.

    Thanks anyway
