| Hello David
| Glad to see you answered.

| I do have my own certified/authenticated/WGA'd etc WIN XP Home SP2 OEM

going

for

| I still have that window to click on when I insert the disk.
| I will leave the Q's there for the moment if I may, before I go further.

If your software STILL request a WinXP SP2 CDROM after you insert a WinXP
SP2 CDROM, then
something else is up.

If it is SP2 level then you should be able to just copy the i386 folder to
the root of the
"C:" drive and then edit the Registry as I indicated. You could tell the
pop-up to ignore
it for now. Copy the i386 folder, edit the Registry and then execute;
sfc /scannnow
Then hopefully it will find what it needs in the i386 SP2 folder.

So, if I reading you correctly it's a do it now. I have put a fresh pot of
coffee on.
I have the disk ready - yes its SP2.
I don't like the sound of that ' then something else is up'
The choice with this windows protection thing are retry, more info and
cancel. More info says poss reasons for prob inserted wrong CD, ie not the
same as version installed OR CD-ROM drive not functioning.
So I will insert.
