This will be because you have XP pre-installed from folders on the HDD.
I believe your puter didn't come with a proper XP CD, just a rescue disc?

Are you launching the setup from within Windows?

The next question is why do you want to do that?

Also I think because the Corp isn't SP2.

I was thinking the same thing. New systems with an OEM version of XP Home/Pro pre-installed are all SP2.

Izzy's two-cents: find a bootable copy XP Pro Corp SP2. There are plenty of good ed2k and Sig2dat links here at FST. I have been utilizng a copy obtained through eDonkey and FST for quite some time now that performs flawlessly.

I still think that. Until I hear different from OP.
