Hi,
I'm trying to install the recovery console, but it says 'setup cannot
continue because the version of windows on your computer is newer than the
version on the cd'.

That's strange because i reloaded the pc with the ibm recovery program (no
cd), and i'm not trying to use a cd to install the recovery console.

It's an xp pc with service pack 2 installed. Does anyone know why or how i
can install the recovery console. Thanks.

CJ
