I am trying to upgrade my OS from Win ME to Win 2000 and I keep getting an error: Setup will not continue because Windows doesn't recognize the current OS installed. So it's not recognizing my Windows ME install what can I do to get around this error? Please Help!!!

I did. From 98 to ME then ME to 2000 Pro. No problems. Inserted CD and it came up each time that the CD contained a newer OS and did I want to update. It even converted my FAT32 ME to NTFS. Only problem now is getting the HP SureStore CD Writer to work!!
