Question Help with... WinXp Disabling Win2k install

Hey,

I'm having a problem when trying to intall Win2k Pro.

I'm currently running Xp w\ sp1, When I put the Windows 2000 Pro cd in the drive, it loads the gui setup as usual, Only thing is that Windows Xp gives me a message saying ithe cd is an older version and that they disabled the functions, preventing me from installing it.

I already have an NTFS partiton ready for Win 2k and everything.

How can I get around this?

You can set the partition xp is on as inactive with something like Partition Magic. This will in effect hide it from your 2000 install.
