i know, but i started doing it the manual way and it wasnt that hard. i found another website that helped me finish that step.. now im stuck on the virtual PC step. i dled the VM ware client and i followed the directions. i pointed my .iso file in the correct spot as the program instructed, i start the VM and im in the blue setup screen. after a few min. in the blue screen, i get to a page that says cannot find any hard drives. i dont think this is normal...i followed all the steps that the tutorial stated. any suggestions? thanks guys Tom

i am following the instructions as stated on the MANUAL WAY and I am getting an error so far i have copied the xp files from the cd like the site says then i create a directory like the site says then i get my sp2.exe file in the correct directory. so far im good until this point c:\xpsp2.exe -s:c:\xpcd\i386 i was under the impression that this is the command i need to input in the run box. the files extract but at the very end i get an error screen. if you are not familiar with the error screen, it tells me i am doing 1 of 2 things wrong, i can get a screen shot. whoever is knowledgeable enough to help me get past this, must know what screen i am reffering to, but i will post it if needed. thanks Tom
