Can I do a fresh install of Windows if all I have is an Update CD-ROM
If you have a CD that says "Upgrade" and not the full version of Windows, you can still do a "fresh" install of Windows. You will need the software from your previous operating system handy, but you will not have to install it. When the Upgrade CD searches for the files to verify you have a pre-existing qualifying product it will prompt you to insert your previous software to check and then ask that you put your Upgrade CD back in the computer to finish.
