    Hi everyone,

    I am trying to install windows xp but it says:
    setup cannot find a previous version of windows installed on your computer. To continue, setup needs to verify that yu qualify to use this upgrade product.

    Please insert one of the following (Windows xp professional full version).

    What should I do knowing that I bought (from my school) the Windows XP professional with service pack 3?

    Thanks for your help,
    E.

    I would like to precise that I bought my mac 2 years ago, and I heard that people had some hard time to run parralel and xp in old model. Do you know what process I should follow to install and run xp since it does not want to recognize the xp cd?
    Thanks for your help,

    Same problem

    Hi,

    I'm having the same problem. Did this ever get resolved for you? The school is insisting that the version I purchased is a full version and it acts that way on other computers but not on the Mac.
