help with frontpage 2003 upgrade installation

[Chance]

Hi,
I posted this message as a hypothetical on here last week, and despite the
answer I am having related problems:

I recently bought a new computer that of course, does not have a floppy disk
drive.

Unfortunately, that is a problem for me because, while I have bought FP 97,
FP98 and FP2003, my first main install was FP 95. FP 95 is all on Floppy.

Now, the problem is I can't find my FP 98 disc (the install recommended I
place that disc in the dvd drive), and even though it also suggested placing
the MS Office disc in its stead (I did), I am still having no luck
re-installing my FrontPage 2003.

Can anyone help? Thanks so much. I'm pulling my hair out here.

Floppies are still useful, why not just install one? I bought one for this
machine last year...$12.00

No need to worry about FP95 - it is not suitable for installing the
FP2003 upgrade. For that you need FP97 or later.
When asked for a qualifying product, insert the FP97 CD in the drive.

Only previous versions of Office with FrontPage (Office 2000 Premium,
Office 2002 Professional with FrontPage, Office 2002 Premium Special
Upgrade Edition) are qualifying products, along with FP97, FP98, FP2000,
and FP2002.
