Some of the restore disks will work as a qualifying disk, some won't. You
will just have to try it. If it doesn't work you can always restore to ME
using your restore CD. You might also look around to see if someone you know
will give you (or sell cheap) a qualifying CD. Windows 95, 98, 98SE or ME
will all work as qualifying CDs for the XP Upgrade.
Good luck,

Glad to know you got it going. To enable the XP firewall click Start,
Control Panel, Network Connections, right click on your connection (dial up,
LAN, whatever you are using), click Properties, click the Advancer tab, see
that the Internet Connection Firewall box is checked.
