upgrade to Xp pro from W98
I have upgraded about 10 computers in my office from W98 to XP Pro with no
problems. The last one I am doing gives me an error that the upgrade cannot find the previous version I am trying to upgrade. W98 is in the Windows folder, so I don't understand why it can't find it. It doesn't give me a chance to BROWSE or LOCATE files. ??????

It was probably Win95 upgraded to 98.
