Hiya. I have a similar question - at least as it relates to Isaiah's last post. Can I do a clean install of the "Upgrade from 95/98 to ME" via a 95 startup floppy? That is, the whole package is there, right? Microsoft just asks for your old product number somewhere along the line? (This, as opposed to installing WinME over Win95). Thanks!

A Win95 floppy has no CD-Rom drivers. You can do it with a Win98 floppy. Also, MS looks for the old media (CD, floppy, etc.), not the number.
