I wanted to upgrade a couple of old PC's on my network from 95 to ME.
The problem is that when I start installing ME I get a message that
says I must have a full version of 98 2nd Edition installed to do so.
Now according to the HELP screen for ME you can upgrade from either 95
or 98. What's up? Any suggestions ?


As Mike has mentioned there were several upgrade versions of WinME, the
"normal" version which allowed an upgrade from 95/98/98se and a very
inexpensive promo which allowed 98SE users to "top up" to WinME. The
latter is what you appear to have gotten ahold of.

Costs 'round here (as I very vaguely recall) at the time were $120 for
the regular upgrade and $60 for the "top up".

Re-formate the hard drive using a Win98 startupdisk and Me will load.
