I have been trying to install it on my desktop, new, but it won't go. It
says that I need Windows XP SP 2. I tried Professional and regular, and both
said the same thing. I even tried an official disk, and it still said the
same thing. So, I decided to try it--installing Windows XP--after backing up
my computer! That disk said I had the wrong OS! Now, I don't know what to
do.

Do you have SP2 for XP installed?
