Unfortunatly that is how the upgrade cd's work for windows xp, it will ask you for the cd if you do a fresh format. If you start the xp upgrade from within windows me it will not ask for it

All you need is someone with the original cd from like 98 or 2000 and use it to let you install xp. Then you are golden.
