    Not sure what you are doing. You don't need floppies to upgrade from Win98. Just insert the XP CD while 98 is running. If it doesn't pop up, then start it by clicking on setup on the CD in My Computer.

    And the "SP1.cab" makes me think you are somehow trying to apply Service Pack 1 for XP before loading XP. That won't work well at all.
