Please log in for more thread options You need to clarify, are you trying to reinstall Pro on the same (Sony, I
assume) PC that it was on to begin with?
How did it get Win98 on it?
If you wiped the Sony XP Pro system and put 98 on it, you won't be able to
just upgrade it with the Sony discs. You probably have to run some Sony
restore program to get it back.
