    O.E.M problem
    I have an Acer with a IDE hard drive and dvd RW master with a Sata hard drive and dvd RW slave. I just changed my IDE hard drive master with a larger IDE hard drive but I can't install XP Pro because its asking me for the O.E.M. When I first insalled the smaller IDE I wasn't asked, now with the larger IDE I'm asked. So I'm asking what to do.

    That would mean it wants the drivers for the new SATA drive.
    Try it without attempting to install these drivers..
