So here is my situation:
Awhile back I bought the Windows XP Upgrade and I always kept a Windows 98 CD with me incase I ever did formats and reformats in order to save on the full purchase of XP at the time. To my dismay, I have recently lost the Windows 98 CD during a move and am now unable to install Windows XP Upgrade onto any platform rendering it useless (unless I can find someway to get another one). Here is my question: If I buy the Windows Vista Upgrade version can I use the Windows XP Upgrade version in order to install Vista without needing the Windows 98 CD? Or will it require me to put in Windows XP and then require me to put in Windows 98? Any help would be great. Thanks!
