windows XP MCE 2005 help

[stacyma1]

I am currently installing a fresh copy of WIN XP MCE 2005 on my computer and all goes well until it asks for the second disk. After running the second disk for a short time a window pops up saying files are needed from a WIN XP PROF SP2 cd. I don't have this cd. I purchased MCE 2005 with the understanding that it was stand alone. Anyone seen this before or have any sugestions. Please help. Thanks!

Perhaps the easiest way out in this case would be to contact the supplier of the disk. Unless of course someone else has experienced the same problem on this forum.

Dude, the first disc you got is XP Pro, the second disc is MCE 2005....


MCE 2005 is built onto XP. It's the same OS.

About an hour after I posted that question I decided for the heck of it I would try putting the first disk back in and it went fine. I think microsoft should have said please insert Win xp Media Edition disk 1 back in, but, then that would be too simple. Thanks for your help!
