Hello,
My name is Darryl. I have a Dell Dimension with XP. XP is in need of repair. The original XP cd is gone. Dell sent me a replacement but when it is inserted the "cannot continue since the version of XP on your system is newer than the one on the cd" message.
I know a new cd can be made that will include the SP3 update with it. But to do this isn't the original cd with the product key required? I still have the product key but am having trouble continuing.
Any suggestions on how to continue?
